Taibhse nó Laoch ón Coronas

Táimid ag dul siar ar an t-ámhrán seo:
Seo é Taibhse nó Laoch ón Coronas an t-ámhrán Ghaelach atá á dheanamh againn sa rang faoi lathair. Nach bhfuil sé go maith. Sheineann an banna ceoil Coronas é. Bain taitneamh as!

Seo muid réidh — taibhsí nó laoich — scriosfadh aoibh fíor anam an té
Nó an bhfuil mé ró ciniciúil ar mhaith(e) liom fhéin, buartha le rá, lig cinniúint an béim
‘S ba léir, yeah ba léir, ‘sé deacair dúinn a rá, ‘sé deacair dúinn a rá
Ach is léir dom, go nglacfaidh sé go leor am agus beagáinín ádh

(Curfá/Chorus)
‘Sé ag tosú dúinn, ag glacadh an céad céim
Tá sé ag athrú, ag feabhsú muid fhéin
Meas tú an cuma linn nó an gcreideann muid fós
Ach seo mar atá dúinn agus b’fhearr linn leanúint ár threo..

‘S ag dul an slí seo thar n’ais chuig an tús
Teacht ó na scáith ag glacadh do pháirt nú(a)
So ná lean leat, ag cailliúint do shlí
Eireoidh leat le aidhmeanna simplí
‘S ba léir, yeah ba léir, ‘sé deacair dúinn a rá, ‘sé deacair dúinn a rá
Ach is léir dom, go nglacfaidh sé go leor am agus beagáinín ádh

Curfá x 2

Seo muid réidh — taibhsí nó laoich — scriosfadh aoibh anam tubaisteach an té
Nó an bhfuil mé ró ciniciúil ar mhaith(e) liom fhéin, buartha le rá, lig cinniúint an béim
