Tá' Mé Mo Shuí(original) |
| Tá mé mo shuí ó d`éirigh`n ghealach aréir |
| Ag cur tein-e síos-go buan is á fadó go géar |
| Tá bunadh a` tí `na luí is tá mise liom féin |
| Tá na coiligh ag glaoch `san saol `na gcodladh ach mé |
| `Sheacht mh`anam déag do bhéal do mhala is do ghrua |
| Do shúil ghorm ghlé-gheal fár thréig mé sionnach na lúb |
| Le cumha do dhiaidh ní léir dom an bealach a shiúil |
| Is a charaid mo chléibh tá na sléibhte `dul idir mé`s tú |
| Deiridh lucht léinn gur claoite an galar an grá |
| Char admhaigh mé é is é `ndiaidh mo chroí istigh a chrá |
| Aicid ró-ghéar, faraor nár sheachain mé í |
| Is go gcuireann sí arraing is céad go géar trí cheart-lár mo chroí |
| Casadh bean-tsí dom thíos ag Lios Bhéal an átha |
| D`fhiafraigh mé di an scaoilfeadh glas ar bith grá |
| Is é dúirt sí gos íseal i mbriathra soineannta sáimh |
| 'An grá a théid fán chroí ní scaoiltear as é go bráth' |
| 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 |
| 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 |
| 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 |
| 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' |
| (translation) |
| I've been sitting since the moon rose last night |
| Putting fire-e down-permanently and long ago sharply |
| The origins of the house lie and I am alone |
| The cocks are crowing `in the world`s asleep but me |
| Seventeen souls for the mouth of your eyebrows and cheeks |
| Your bright blue eyes made me abandon the fox of the loop |
| With nostalgia behind you I do not see the way to walk |
| My dear friend the mountains are `going between me`s you |
| Scholars conclude that love is plagued by disease |
| I didn't admit it, it `s tormenting my inner heart |
| Acute disease, alas, I did not avoid it |
| It's that she sends a hundred arrows sharply through the very center of my heart |
| A housewife meets me downstairs at Lis Ballina |
| I asked her if any lock would release love |
| She said a low voice in soft blunt words |
| 'The love that goes to the heart is never released' |
| 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 |
| 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 |
| 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 |
| 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' |
