| Codhlaím Go Suan (original) | Codhlaím Go Suan (translation) |
|---|---|
| Téann sé leis an ngaoth | It goes with the wind |
| Tagann sé ar na dtonnta | It comes on the waves |
| Comhlíonann sé mo ghuí | He fulfills my prayer |
| Nuair a ghlaochaim i ndoircheacht na hoíche | When I call in the darkness of the night |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go suan, a Íosa | I sleep soundly, Jesus |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go sámh id' chroí | I sleep peacefully in my heart |
| Nochtar é sa tús | It is revealed in the beginning |
| San leanbh nua bheirthe | In the newly born child |
| Maireann sé sa chríoch | It lives in the end |
| Ar scaradh anam is coirp | On the separation of soul and body |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go suan, a Íosa | I sleep soundly, Jesus |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go sámh id' chroí | I sleep peacefully in my heart |
| Do sharú níl ann ar throicaireacht nó grá | To overcome it is not compassion or love |
| Ní féidir do chumhacht a thuiscint | Your power cannot be understood |
| Is tusa mo mhuinteoir s’treoraí | You are my teacher and guide |
| Codhlaím go suan id' chroí | I sleep peacefully in my heart |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go suan, a Íosa | I sleep soundly, Jesus |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go sámh id' chroí | I sleep peacefully in my heart |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go suan, a Íosa | I sleep soundly, Jesus |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go sámh id' chroí | I sleep peacefully in my heart |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go suan, a Íosa | I sleep soundly, Jesus |
| Suan, suan, suan | Sleep, sleep, sleep |
| Codhlaím go sámh id' chroí | I sleep peacefully in my heart |
