don't mind me,i'm just amusing myself

i just wrote out on a comment what i thought the lyrics to a song by altan were...the chorus anyway. then i looked it up.

here is my version,which is partly phonetic. i transcribed it from just singing it to myself in my head.

donal,se donal,se donal aine wanish
donal agus morag
a rien ya wanish aine

here is how it is actually spelled:

curfa:
Do/nal, 'se Do/nal,
'Se Do/nal a rinne an bhainis,
Do/nal agus Mo/rag a rinne an
bhainis ainmeil.
