Ta me mo shui
(I am sitting)
Ta me mo shui o d`eirigh`n ghealach areir
Ag cur tein-e sios-go buan is a fado go gear
Ta bunadh a` ti `na lui is ta mise liom fein
Ta na coiligh ag glaoch `san saol `na gcodladh ach me
I am sitting up since the moon arose last night
Putting down a fire again and again and keeping it lit
The family is in bed and here am I by myself,
The cocks are crowing and the country is asleep but me.
`Sheacht mh`anam deag do bheal do mhala is do ghrua
Do shuil ghorm ghle-gheal far threig me sionnach na lub
Le cumha do dhiaidh ni leir dom an bealach a shiuil
Is a charaid mo chleibh ta na sleibhte `dul idir me`s tu
I love your mouth, your eyebrows and your cheeks
Your bright blue eyes for whose sake I stopped hunting the wily fox
In longing for you I cannot see to walk the road
Friend of my bosom, the mountains lie between me and you.
Deiridh lucht leinn gur claoite an galar an gra
Char admhaigh me e is e `ndiaidh mo chroi istigh a chra
Aicid ro-ghear, faraor nar sheachain me i
Is go gcuireann si arraing is cead go gear tri cheart-lar mo chroi
Learned men say that love is a fatal sickness
I never admitted it until now that my heart is broken:
It's a very painful illness, alas, I have not avoided it,
And it sends a hundred arrows through the core of my heart.
Casadh bean-tsi dom thios ag Lios Bheal an Átha
D`fhiafraigh me di an scaoilfeadh glas ar bith gra
Is e duirt si gos iseal i mbriathra soineannta saimh
"An gra a theid fan chroi ni scaoiltear as e go brath"
I met a fairy woman at the Rath of Beal an Atha
I asked her would any key unlock the love in my heart
And she said in soft simple language
"When love enters the heart it will never be driven from it".
