TГЎ mГ© mo shuГ
(I am sitting)
TГЎ mГ© mo shuГ Гі d`Г©irigh`n ghealach arГ©ir
Ag cur tein-e sГos-go buan is ГЎ fadГі go gГ©ar
TГЎ bunadh a` tГ `na luГ is tГЎ mise liom fГ©in
TГЎ na coiligh ag glaoch `san saol `na gcodladh ach mГ©
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 dГ©ag do bhГ©al do mhala is do ghrua
Do shГєil ghorm ghlГ©-gheal fГЎr thrГ©ig mГ© sionnach na lГєb
Le cumha do dhiaidh nГ lГ©ir dom an bealach a shiГєil
Is a charaid mo chlГ©ibh tГЎ na slГ©ibhte `dul idir mГ©`s tГє
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 lГ©inn gur claoite an galar an grГЎ
Char admhaigh mГ© Г© is Г© `ndiaidh mo chroГ istigh a chrГЎ
Aicid rГі-ghГ©ar, faraor nГЎr sheachain mГ© Г
Is go gcuireann sГ arraing is cГ©ad go gГ©ar trГ cheart-lГЎr mo chroГ
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-tsГ dom thГos ag Lios BhГ©al an Átha
D`fhiafraigh mГ© di an scaoilfeadh glas ar bith grГЎ
Is Г© dГєirt sГ gos Гseal i mbriathra soineannta sГЎimh
«An grГЎ a thГ©id fГЎn chroГ nГ scaoiltear as Г© go brГЎth»
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».
