Bhí mise i ngrá le cailín Le blianta anuas Liza ab ainm di Ach go tobann thánaig sí chugam Le scéal a bhris mo chroí
Chorus (after each verse): Liza Liza mo stór Liza Fan liom
Chuartaigh mise thoir Agus chuartaigh mise thiar Chuartaigh mé arís fé dhó Go dtáinig an lá ar phill mo ghrá Le fanacht liom go deo
Bhí Liza ar shíul gan dóigh Ni thánaig sí mo thoir Bhí Liza in bean gan chéill Ach is cuma tá muid go sona I mbothán beag línn féin
I'd been in love with a girl For years and years Liza was her name But suddenly she came to me With news that broke my heart
Chorus (after each verse): Liza Liza baby Liza Stay with me
I searched high I searched low I searched again and again Till one day my love returned To stay with me forever
Liza was off wandering She didn't come looking for me Liza was a little fool But who cares? We're happy In a little hut by ourselves
