Jedna z najładniejszych irlandzkich ballad. Curragh jest specyficznym rodzajem uszczelnianej smołą irlandzkiej drewnianej łodzi o płaskim dnie. Jej konstrukcja wywodzi się w prostej linni od łodzi wikingów!

Curragh of Kildare

Oh the winter it has passed
And the summer's come at last
The small birds are singing in the trees
And their little hearts are glad
ah, but mine is very sad
Since my true love is far away from me

And straight I will repair
To the Curragh of Kildare
For it's there I'll finds tidings of my dear

Oh the rose upon the briar
And the clouds that float so high
Bring joy to the linnet and the bee
And their little hearts are blessed
But mine can know no rest
Since my true love is far away from me
All you who are in love
