I'm going to totally butcher this I know it's from a celtic band, and probally more then one lol, but I think a recen like 2004, 2005 group just sang it, it had like 4 girls or something like that. anyway it something like siul contats aka sail me run (yea not spelled right but that's how it sounds" I know there's a english portion that's like I'll dye my petitcoat, dye my bread, until my parents wish me dead (that might be out of order but I hope this helps!)

I'm sorry I'm editing this after 2 answers but maybe u guys can edit it again, so far you're right but that' not the band i'm looking for (and in that siul la run-still can't spell it right lol I think they sing less verses) but I just though of another song they sing (along with probally traditional celtic, and sad songs-if I can just find the album) it like goes si da mhaimoi or close to that i know the english translation is (wealthy window) anyway I guess I'm looking for the group, and the album thanks! I think the even have a musiv video dvd too?

Here's an album you might want to take a look at. It's called "Celtic Woman", by Celtic Woman, and contains both the songs you have mentioned.

Siuil A Ruin
I wish I was on yonder hill
'Tis there I'd sit and cry my fill,
And every tear would turn a mill,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.
(phoenetic Gaelic)
Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go dheen durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.
I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel,
I'll sell my only spinning wheel,
To buy my love a sword of steel
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.
I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red,
And 'round the world I'll beg my bread,
Until my parents shall wish me dead,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.
I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,
I wish I had my heart again,
And vainly think I'd not complain,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.
But now my love has gone to France,
To try his fortune to advance;
If he e'er come back, 'tis but a chance,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn

I'm pretty sure it's called "Siuil a Run" by Clannad, off of the album Dulaman.
