Bliain an taca seo d'imigh uaim rún mo chléibh
Ní thiocfaidh sé abhaile go dtabharfaidh sé cúrsa an tsaoil
Nuair a chífead é rithfead le fuinneamh ró-ard ina chomhair's
Clúdód le mil é, is é Jimmy mo mhíle stór
Bíonn mo mháthair is m'athair ag bearradh's ag bruíon liom féin
Táim giobaithe piocaithe, ciapaithe, cráite dem shaol
Thugas taitneamh don duine úd dob fhinne's dob aille snó
Is chuaigh sé ar bhord loinge, is é Jimmy mo mhíle stór
These twelve months and better my darling has left these shore
He ne'er will come back 'til he travels the world o'er
And when he returnes with
He's the finest of lovers, sweet Jimmy Mo Mhíle Stór
Rachadsa chun coille agus caithféad an chuid eile dem shaol
San áit ná béidh éinne ag éisteacht le ceol na n-éan
Ag bun an chrainn chaorthainn mar a bhfásann ann féar go leor
Ag tabhart taitnimh don duine úd, is é Jimmy mo mhíle stór
He's the finest of lovers, sweet Jimmy Mo Mhíle Stór
