Select language to translate this lyric

Hey my love, ho my love, where have you been? Selling your goods in the County?
You have been gone this evening long, Oh my love, do not betray me!
Hey man, ho man, what do you think? That I have been foolin' away?
I have been faithful and true, my love, your dutiful wife to stay.
Hey my love, ho my love, step in the light, you are not looking so well,
Don't be a messin' with fairies me love; the devil will damn you to hell.
Hey man, ho man, I am but ill, Come my love, why do you frown?
Fetch me some milk from the farmer good man, to calm my fever down.
Hey my love, ho my love, look who is here; your father and your brother,
Quiet you fool, take this potion down, come on now drink up another!
Hey man, ho man, let me alone; I will not do as you say!
I am your wife, no demon, me Love, nor taken by the fae.
Hey devil, ho devil, I've got you now, no longer will you possess her!
Bridget, my wife, come back to me now, and he threw her down into the fire.
Bridget was set in a shallow grave, no headstone for to remember,
Michael was thrown in a madman's cell, his suffering fate to avenge her.
Chan tú sa sÃu00ad, a BhrÃu00add Cleirigh.
Nach tusa bean MhÃu00adcheal Cleirigh?
Chan tú sa sÃu00ad, a BhrÃu00add Cleirigh.
