Translation of the song lyrics Seinn Alilliu - Michael Patrick Kelly

Seinn Alilliu (original)

An chéad suáilce fuair an Mhaighdean Bheannaithe
Narb í sin an tsuáilce mhár
Suáilce a fuair si óna haon Mhac losa
Gur thung si, un a' tsaoil é í mbothán cró
An tarna suáilce fuair an Maighdean Bheannaithe
Narbh í sin an tsuáilce mhór
Suáilce a fuair si óna haon Mhac losa
Gur shiúil sé, léi an ród
Seinn Aililiúia, Seinn Aliliúia
Seinn Aliliúia, Seinn Aliliúia
An triú fuair an Maighdean Bheannaithe
Narvh í sin an tsuáilce mhór
Suáilce a fuair si ona haon Mhac losa
Gur chuaigh sé ag leamh a leabhar
Seinn Aililiúia, Seinn Aliliúia
Seinn Aliliúia, Seinn Aliliúia
Seinn Aililiúia, Seinn Aliliúia
Seinn Aliliúia, Seinn Aliliúia
An cúigú suálice fuair an Maighdean Bheannaithe
Narbh í sin an tsuáilce mhór
Suáilce a fuair si óna haon Mhac losa
Gur dhein sé an marbh beo

Seinn Alilliu (translation)

The Blessed Virgin received the first joy
That was not the joy
Joy she received from her only Son
Gur thung si, un of the world is her hut hut
The Blessed Virgin received the second joy
That was not the great joy
Joy she received from her only Son
That he walked, with her the road
Play Alleluia, Play Alleluia
Play Alley, Play Alley
The third received the Blessed Virgin
Narvh that is the great joy
Joy she received from her only Son
That he got bored of his book
Play Alleluia, Play Alleluia
Play Alley, Play Alley
Play Alleluia, Play Alleluia
Play Alley, Play Alley
The fifth sualice received the Blessed Virgin
That was not the great joy
Joy she received from her only Son
That he made the dead alive
