Translation of the song lyrics Bi-Se I Mo Shuil (Part 1) - Iona

Bi-Se I Mo Shuil (Part 1) (original)

Bi-se i mo shuil
A Ri mhor na nduil
Lion thusa mo bheatha
Mo cheadfai’s mo stuaim
Bi thusa i m’aigne
Gach oiche’s gach la
Im chodladh no im dhuiseacht
Lion me le do gra
Bi thusa mo threoru
I mbriathar is i mbeart
Fan thusa go deo liom is
Coinnigh me ceart
Glac curam mar athair
Is eist le mo ghui
Is tabhair domsa ait conai
Istigh i do chroi
ENGLISH TRANSLATION:
Be my eyes, O king of creation
Fill my life with understanding
And patience
Will You be my mind every night
And every day
Sleeping or awake
Fill me with Your love
Will You be my guidance
In my words and actions
Stay with me forever
And keep me on the right path
As my Father take care of me
And listen to my prayers
And give me a place
To live inside Your heart)

Bi-Se I Mo Shuil (Part 1) (translation)

Be my eye
A Ri mhor na nduil
You fill my life
My sanity, my sanity
Be in my mind
Every night’s every day
In sleep or in waking
Fill me with your love
Be my guide
In verb and in measure
Stay with me forever
Keep me right
Take care as a father
Listen to my prayer
Give me a place to live
Inside your heart
