False Isabel is troubling me, leaving me faded and withered with her courting

lyrics

Yn Isabel foalsey, t'ee boirey mee hene
As kyndagh ree ta mee gaase fioghit as creen
Lesh sooree as breagey as ginsh reddyn bwaagh
As gialdyn nagh jean ee chooilleeney dy bragh

Ny keayrtyn t'ee gearey, as jannoo jeem spoyrt
As eisht keayrtyn elley dy graihagh rhym loayrt
Myr shoh ta shin dellal, cur shaghey yn traa
Veih traa lhie ayns yn oie dys peesh veg dy laa

Ny keayrtyn gowym daanys, as geddyn voee kiss
As eisht nee ee gra rhyms t'ou maarliagh gyn-ys
Nee shoh shin dys focklyn as eisht gowmayd cooish
Veagh tassane dy chowag ain realtagh shin dooisht

Tammylt ny lurg shen cheet feiyr mygeayrt y thie
Veagh s'liooar ny agglagh ny sleih ta ny lhie
Beem oolee as craa ny hoie heer ec yn aile
Eer sooie ta cloie cooyl yn grainle

Dy ve dooisht fud ny hoie as skee feiyn laa
Nagh bare dou ve laccal ben choud as vee'm bio
Ny ve boirit as eiyrit as heaghnit myr shoh

Ta mee booiagh ginsh eh magh da dagh unnane
Dy vod ad goaill tastey as voish sooreee chea
Ayns aght ennagh s'assey dy leeideil nyn mea!

(Paraphrased)
False Isabel is troubling me, leaving me faded and withered with her courting, Lying, saying pretty things and making promises Sometimes she’s laughing and teasing, Other times speaking lovingly, This is how we spend our time from dusk till dawn Sometimes I’ll be bold and steal a kiss... with all the fuss we’ll wake the household! Thinking about courting is driving me mad, It’s not worth the trouble- take my advice and find an easier way to live!
