hard to tell

or recognise a sign

to see me through

a warning sign



first the thunder

satisfied, if the past it will not lie

then the storm

torn assunder

the future you and I get blown away

in the storm

in a lifetime

and as the rain it falls

begin again, as the storm breaks through

heavy in my heart

believe the light in you

so the light shines in you

without color, faded and worn

torn asunder in the storm



unless the sound has faded from your soul

unless it disappears



first the thunder

selfish storm

then the storm

hold on the inside

torn asunder

one life

in the storm

in a lifetime

in a lifetime

I came around, and I was in need
You came by my side, all my troubles to ease
You collected my heart, healing the past
You'll never lay down and I can count on you

We all speak well of a bridge that carries us over
Over safe
The art of compromise has surely been our greatest strength
...our greatest strength.

When someone pretends, to circle your friends
And finds he's betraying you 'fore it all ends
A bittersweet chain, that'll always remain
So don't let illusions get the better of you

We all speak well of a bridge that carries us over
...over safe
The art of compromise has surely been our greatest strength
...our greatest strength.Love is to share, where words can't compare
Love is desire, so full of fire

We all speak well of a bridge that carries us over
...over safe
The art of compromise has surely been our greatest strength
...our greatest strength.

We all speak well of a bridge that carries us over
...over safe
The art of compromise has surely been our greatest strength
...our greatest strength.

Broken pieces everywhere,
I stilled my mind, and found I care
Running on the morning tide,
Something you would say to me.

We drank the waters of delight,
We played the games of wrong and right.
Did we understand
They're just footsteps in the sand?

Oh long dreaming, find my tears
I could love you, all the years.
There are times like today
The wind will blow in a gentle way.

Mark it down in frozen glass
Lied to me that i could win.
So many ways to share a love
With words and touch we promised much.

Do we understand
The footsteps in the sand?

I believe.
I believe too easily.

I believe.
I believe too easily.

Oh long dreaming find my tears
I could love you all the years.
Here I stand still the same
I guess this showcase changed the name.

Hard to know who plays the fool,
Never looking back on years
I wonder now witch way to face
I catch a vision of this place.

Did we understand
The footsteps in the sand?

Secrets I left behind, farewell now
A new world to desire, to desire
Change the pictures, change the pages
It matters little how I knew you

Ma bhionn tu liom, bi liom
A stor mo chroi
Ma bhionn tu liom, bi liom
A mhile gra
Ma bhionn tu liom

Voices of memories, I hear you
A book of stories told, stories old
Dreams of good times, dreams of sad times
And foolish moments we will always share

Ma bhionn tu liom, bi liom
A stor mo chroi
Ma bhionn tu liom, bi liom
A mhile gra
Ma bhionn tu liom, bi liom
A stor mo chroi
Ma bhionn tu liom, bi liom
A mhile gra
Ma bhionn tu liom, bi liom
A stor mo chroi
Ma bhionn tu liom

Twilight is creeping over hillsides
The candle's burning bright, burning bright
Silent feelings, silent my eyes
I wonder how much we'll always stay

Touching hands, finding words from your heart
Where's the common speech?
Behind the shield, a lone man grows

Siuil ag siuil an bhealach seo
An bhealach seo ta romham'sa
Siuil in aice liomsa
Is bi i gconai caoimh

Scairt tu orm isteach i mo chroi
Chuala me do ghlor istigh i mo chroi
Istigh i mo chroi
Scairt tu orm isteach i mo chroi
Ar an bhealach seo scairt tu an dan

Calling out, secret lines from your heart
Wise beyond your years
Made my life more worthy now

Siuil ag siuil an bhealach seo
An bhealach seo ta romham'sa
Siuil in aice liomsa
Is bi i gconai caoimh

Siuil ag siuil an bhealach seo

Autumn leaves are falling 'round us
Time to gather all those many thoughts
Of all the things that might have been
Or gained at such a cost
For some of us there's endless hoping
For some of us a craziness, too
Holding onto better reasons
Works for me and you, you know it's true

And when the stakes are higher
Never play with fire
Leave it alone

I wandered through a country churchyard
And wondered what kind of life they led
Walked into a castle ruin
Of gentry that had fled
For some of them had endless hoping
Some of them crazy, too
Holding onto better reasons
We'll never truly know

Those trees will tumble down on a stormy day
And those leaves will fade away, fade away

The autumn leaves are falling 'round us
I'm here to gather all my many thoughts
Of all the things that might have been
As the ground has turned to frost

Leaves are falling, autumn leaves are falling...

Coming into certain lines of justice
A venue for a Venus and Eve
Take the balance of their beauty between them
A vain look can deceive

I'm only paying court to love
As deep as you can find
On the blind side of your heart
Safe inside your mind

When the length of days are dawning
It feels right in the light of understanding
There's always something bound to be a warning
When it's infinite it never meets

I'm only paying court to love
As deep as you could wish to find
On the blind side of your heart
Safe inside your mind
(2x)

I'm only paying court to love
As deep as you could wish to find
On the blind side of your heart
Safe inside, safe inside your mind

Court to love...

Let me see generation times
Will we hear children singing rhymes?
Sweet memories gone by, they're gone by
Let me be wiser with my eyes
Let me see my love by my side
Let me see heaven

Lonely years of searching the wilderness
How this world can lead us all astray
Don't let me cry over colorless pictures
No more bitter winds
No more troubled seas
Just forgive me and let me see

Let me see my love, let me see
Let me see my love, let me see

Let me see generation times
Will we hear children singing rhymes?
Sweet memories gone by, they're gone by
Let me be wiser with my eyes
Let me see my love by my side
Let me see heaven

Crossing the room, I recognize the child in me
I'll close my eyes to release away all my fears
We silence the rose to see it blossom back again
Step by step we walk on
Word by word we talk on
Just forgive me and let me see

Let me see generation times
Will we hear children singing rhymes?
Sweet memories gone by, they're gone by
Let me be wiser with my eyes
Let me see my love by my side
Let me see heaven

How gentle was the breeze that surrounded the way
How loud the sea's roar on the four winds everyday
Sharing love, wounded gifts from ancient long ago
Together they closed in the circles we know

Will we treasure all the secrets with life's changing scenes?
Where our hearts were warm with love, so much love
Will the flowers grow again as I open out my hand?
Precious time, time for healing the beauty of this land
(2x)

How soulful those words that confuses the way
How wild the mountains' stare as they guard our every day
Take for granted noble hearts in the golden age that's flown
Between us, recall on a strong road we've known

Will we treasure all the secrets with life's changing scenes?
Where our hearts were warm with love, so much love
Will the flowers grow again as I open out my hand?
Precious time, time for healing the beauty of this land

The mist has cleared from Muckish Hill
Our parting coming nearer
The last embrace, the final touch
With nothing more to say
Nothing more to say

As silence fell around the bridge
Not a single word was spoken
A bitter breeze, a lonely stream
Echoed through the glen
Echoed through the glen

Droichead na ndeor
Agus droichead na gcaointe
Droichead na gcaointe
Agus droichead na ndeor

Ochon 's o

Memories fade with passing age
In forlorn hope we wait for
Distant hills still haunt us now
Until the end of time
Until the end of time

Droichead na ndeor
Agus droichead na gcaointe
Droichead na gcaointe
Agus droichead na ndeor
(2x)

Cold blue eyes, they look through me
Stare those eyes at me

You must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
Yes, you must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs

There's no disguise upon your face
You're not like anyone I know
They give so freely and they come when I come out
But you're the one, the one I want to understand

You must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
Yes, you must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs

You're not scared, no, you don't answer
You just stand there, face the stairs going home
If I could choose my own way down
I'd take the road to the blackstairs

You must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs

Sadness raging in the broken man
Stays until the day ends
When he is free to think of better days again
Looks the scales of love and time are all the same

You must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
And I long to up there
And live on the blackstairs
Yes, you must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs

Translation
I am a boy from Ireland and I'd coax a nice young girl,
I wouldn't ask for a dowry with her, I'm rich enough myself,
I own Cork, big as it is both sides of the glen and Tyrone,
And if I don't change my ways I'll be the heir for County Mayo.

Cow herding, my Leo, I did not never practice,
But playing and drinking with new young women by the mountain.
If I lost my wealth and I don't think I lost my sense,
And your kiss is no more to me than a show worn for a year.

My love and treasure, don't marry the old grey man,
But marry a young man, my Leo, even though he lives but a year,
Or you'll still be without a daughter or son above you,
Crying in the afternoon or in the morning hard.

It's the same old story
When someone astounds you
The harder they come
Yes the harder they fall
Takin' it easy
No matter what people say
And time will heal all your troubles away

(chorus)
I've got a notion
I might as well be closer to your heart
It's out in the open
I might as well be closer to your heart

Tossing and turning
And burning dreams across the night
(forever searching)
Silently waiting for such a long time
But will I know tomorrow
If you will be mine?

Chorus

So it's the same old story
When someone astounds you
That the harder they come
Yes the harder they fall
Like takin' it easy
No matter what people say
And time will heal all your troubles away

hard to tell

or recognise a sign

to see me through

a warning sign



first the thunder

satisfied, if the past it will not lie

then the storm

torn assunder

the future you and I get blown away

in the storm

in a lifetime

and as the rain it falls

begin again, as the storm breaks through

heavy in my heart

believe the light in you

so the light shines in you

without color, faded and worn

torn asunder in the storm



unless the sound has faded from your soul

unless it disappears



first the thunder

selfish storm

then the storm

hold on the inside

torn asunder

one life

in the storm

in a lifetime

in a lifetime

There's a rumor spreading all around
We're on the way
To a change of setting, homeward bound
Autumn day

(chorus)
'Cause indoor we will light the fire
Light the fires of hope
Lost between the mountain and the sun
Caught the high emotion by the setting sun

So let's leave early, don't be late
Don't delay
Though we expect you here at eight
Come what may

Chorus

Lost between the mountain and the sun
Caught the high emotion by the setting sun

With song and dance we greet the dawn
Another day
The parting mass will soon be gone
We're on our way

Chorus

Lost between the mountain and the sun
Caught the high emotion by the setting sun

Blue waves are rolling
Visions in my mind
Of a strange voice calling
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end

Hear the anchor sinking
Voices ringing clear
Farewell from my kindred
And friends I love so dear, and friends I love so dear
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end

Lost streams are fading
They sweep across the vale
And with oceans of meadows
To bring me back again, to bring me back again
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end

Long have I traveled
In storm, in sun, in rain
And it's homeward singing
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end

Journey's at an end, journey's at an end
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end

Sit awhile staring at the ocean
Riding high the boats flying motion
Just a smile, tears and emotion
Storm rise on the northern skyline

Shadows are haunting me drifting down to the sea

Remember when we used sing the old songs
Of friends that part to sail to a new land
Without a smile, so long a journey
Storm rise on the northern skyline

Shadows are haunting me drifting down to the sea

Rest awhile staring at the mountain
Reaching high, the valley's far below us
See for miles, still the clear horizon
Storm rise on the northern skyline

Shadows are haunting me drifting down to the sea

Still in time and time to say,
I don't believe my eyes.
Is this the place I love to hate?
Can I explain the altered state
Of the Waiting Moon?
Waiting Moon.

(chorus)
And the Wild Cry out,
Their cries are found in me
And the Wild Cry out,
Their cries are found in me

Stayed up stripped at your command
A silhouette against sky.
I see the changing of the faces
I've seen, Betrayed as one gets free
Of the Waiting Moon.
Waiting Moon.

Chorus

Instrumental

Chorus

Set my sights on the day,
When I'll have you here by my side.
And for me to share a thousand dreams with you,
So far removed the days
In that Waiting Moon.
Waiting Moon.

Chorus

There I go saying the same old things
Something to rhyme or to cling to
When times were tough, I didn't say enough
Like some sweet lines to say to you, relate to you

Chorus:
What will I do without you?
What will I do? Heaven knows
What will I do without you?
What will I do?

We watch the seasons come and go
Leaves are falling as water flows
We took for granted the love that's wanted
A leaning shoulder to cry on

(Chorus)

I don't know, I don't know

Every day my heart will stray
And dream of the memories we left behind
Love is a reason, a reason to live
So don't let it slip away

(Chorus)

What will I do without you?
What will I do?
I don't know, I don't know

And the young man

With his reputation behind him


I will go wherever he came from -

I went to the fair and sold my cow
For five pounds of silver and a yellow guinea of gold
If I drink the silver and if I give away the gold
O what is that to anyone else.

Plucking apples from branches or herding cows,
If I stretch out for a while beneath a tree relaxing,
O what is that to anyone else.

O what is that to anyone else.


If I go for a night-visit and for dancing and sport,
To fairs and races and every gathering of that sort,
If I see happy people and if I'm happy with them,
O what is that to anyone else.
If I see happy people and if I'm happy with them,
O what is that to anyone else.

People say I'm without riches no doubt,
Without goods or clothes or cattle or stock,
If I a happy living in a hovel,
O what is that to anyone else.
If I a happy living in a hovel,
O what is that to anyone else.

It's not for the money
The hope and despair
It's not for the leaving
Of love that was there
If it's for danger
A fortune beware
Leaving it all back
To somewhere the same
Those mystery games

The mystery game
The mystery game
Just like a parting
A rendezvous
Glass
A lust for a passion
Long may it last
Seasons have numbed us
From a chalk to a stone
Leading us onwards
To miss or be made
Those mystery games

The mystery game
The mystery game

Telling odd stories
From a distant past
Most are remembered
The good and the bad
Like an old winding river
In a curious plot
Leading it all back
To somewhere the same
That mystery game

It's not for the money
The hope and despair
It's not for the leaving
Of love that was there
If it's for danger
A fortune beware
Leaving it all back
To somewhere the same
Those mystery games

The mystery game
The mystery game
Just like a parting
A rendezvous
Glass
A lust for a passion
Long may it last
Seasons have numbed us
From a chalk to a stone
Leading us onwards
To miss or be made
Those mystery games

The mystery game
The mystery game

Telling odd stories
From a distant past
Most are remembered
The good and the bad
Like an old winding river
In a curious plot
Leading it all back
To somewhere the same
That mystery game

Do chomhra 's do chairdeas
Ba mhian liom I gconai
's oro gra mo chroi
Scealta is amhrain
Go haosta le sleibhte
Cruaidh 's croga le haois

Slan le na laethe a bhi seal go haerach
Slan le na laethe bhi
Slan leis an oiche
A casadh orainn do'n chead uair
Slan le na laethe bhi

Ag amharc ar an fharraige
's an ghrian ar a'tsaile
's oro gra mo chroi
Scealta fa Bhalar

Oileain seanda mar fhis

I can quote a lot of lines
That's pertinent to you and me
Life and all it's many choices
Are so funny and so mean
Deep thoughts in one's convictions
Can be someones discontent
Just what it seems isn't
If must needs the devil drives

Soul searcher what are you looking for
Soul giver what will you settle for

Back to the very beginning
Back to the future I don't mind
As long as philosophical people
Keep their minds alive
Could we use the back pages
Of a bible of ages
If you could write it now
Well if needs must the devil drives

Soul searcher what are you looking for
Soul giver what will you settle for

Soul searcher what are you looking for
Soul giver what will you settle for

Alone searcher is owed a lot of love
Soul searcher what will you settle for

Travelling down a dirty road
Covered with moss
And see the grey stones
Green as luscious fields in sight
A dark moonlight night
When the past flashes by
Coming down from heaven like a falling star
That you wish upon

Isn't it a struggle
To find a good friend?
Isn't it a struggle
To have to defend?
Isn't it a struggle
You have to take that chance to lend a hand
Well I'm travelling down a dirty road
Clearing up all that's known

A misty occurrence happens all the time
Around every corner a brighter day lies
Loads of mercy, beauty beholds
An eye for a partner as good, as good as gold
Green as luscious fields in sight
A dark moonlight night
When the past flashes by
Coming down from heaven like a falling star
That you wish upon

Travelling down a dirty road
Covered with moss
And see the grey stones
Green as luscious fields in sight

Around every corner a brighter day lies
Loads of mercy, beauty beholds
An eye for a partner as good, as good as gold
Green as luscious fields in sight
A dark moonlight night
When the past flashes by
Coming down from heaven like a falling star
That you wish upon

Covered in darkness a time that is past
Waiting adrift they cannot hold back
Cannot hold back
Tear misted eyes standing alone
A broken will over all that they've known

Out in the distance far is the calling
Shadows still steal
Through the place that they knew
A vision that's empty is what they see
The eyes of tomorrow
Look to sunset dreams

Sorrow deepens only to tell
That silence speaks where words cannot mend
Words cannot mend
A vision that's empty is what they see
The eyes of tomorrow
Look to sunset dreams

Out in the distance far is the calling
Shadows still steal
Through the place that they knew
A vision that's empty is what they see

When it's gone and you want it so badly
A game of love is a two way street
And from above there comes inspiration
Darkest clouds will disappear

CHORUS
Take it down, put it in your diary
Come around to the pleasant side
Put it down to another experience
Come around to the other side

Fallen words from a broken framework
Touching hearts scribbled on a sheet
And from above here comes inspiration
Darkest clouds will disappear

CHORUS

When it hurts and the pain still lingers
A game of love now a one way street
Faith and hope is your only connection
Darkest clouds may disappear

Everything is foolhardy
And never is so good
Who will need an explanation
If all is understood

This time has come again
It’s all shining through
This one will be forever
And I’ll be there for you

It was just midnight
Feeling so high
Dancing on a crest of a wave
Your eyes met mine
Leaving those cares behind us
Dancing in the mood

This time has come again
It’s all shining through
This one will be forever
And I’ll be there for you

A certain combination
Near impossible to find
Rolling on stormy weather
Such a fine line
Striving to a seventh heaven
Knowing that we could

This time has come again
It’s all shining through
This one will be forever
And I’ll be there for you

Everything is foolhardy
And never is so good
Who will need an explanation
If all is understood

This time has come again
It’s all shining through
This one will be forever
And I’ll be there for you

It was just midnight
Feeling so high
Dancing on a crest of a wave
Your eyes met mine
Leaving those cares behind us
Dancing in the mood

This time has come again
It’s all shining through
This one will be forever
And I’ll be there for you

A certain combination
Near impossible to find
Rolling on stormy weather
Such a fine line
Striving to a seventh heaven
Knowing that we could

This time has come again
It’s all shining through
This one will be forever
And I’ll be there for you

Back in my schooldays, acting the fool days
One and one and one is three
And the man said, "Hey, come and cut yourself a piece of the big time"
Armor-clad forces, riding Trojan horses
Never made sense to me
I didn't want to be a part of the great debate on moonshine

(chorus)
"Stop, pay the price," they said to me
"Take this advice, you're out of your head"
I said, "Stop, hold the phone
This has to be cut to the bone
Too bad, I see red, I see red, I see red"

Sly man stumbles, twists and he tumbles
He always lands on his feet
And he sets his face towards the far horizon
Won't you come this way? Can't you go that way?
But his rhythm don't miss a beat
'Cause he's doing everything he can to keep surviving

"Stop, pay the price," they said to me
"Take this advice, you're out of your head"

chorus

So who wants a riot? People should be quiet
Don't we give them good TV?
You can learn to love your lifetime of distraction
Nothing on the inside, nothing on the outside
All the way from A to Z
I can live without that kind of satisfaction

chorus (4x)

There is a place on the east
Mysterious ring, a Magical Ring of Stones
The druids have lived there once they said,
forgotten is the race that no-one knows.

Chorus:
Rum de rum 'rud a derimo
Rum de rum 'rud a derimo

The circled tomb of a different age
Secret lines carved on ancient stone.
Heroic Kings laid down to rest
Forgotten is the race that no-one knows.

Wait for the sun on a winter's day
and a beam of light shines across the floor.
Mysterious ring, a Magical Ring.
But forgotten is the race that no-one knows.

You can win or lose and be excused
The sudden change of plan
As a reality, it's very clear
But a loser always loses in the end
Always in the end

(chorus)
For a long time now
I'm passing time
Still I know somehow
I'll learn to try
I'm passing time

You may ask for gifts, just anyone
The right
I'm not so sure it's anything at all
For a loser is still losing in the end
Losing in the end

Chorus (2x)

Yes, I am aware of passing time
Without a care in sight
I can feel the changes coming very soon
And a loser won't be losing in the end
Losing in the end

Chorus

Passing time
Passing time

Ar mo tharraingt siar go Carn tSiail dom,

Go haonach bliantuil n Feil' Muire Mor

Tharla an ainnir as an taobh aniar dom

Is i go cianmhar 'gabhail tharam sa rod.

Dar liom fein, o, gur scar mo chiall uaim

Mar bheinn ag siabhran no seal ag ol,

Chonacthas domhsa gur dhorcha an ghrian gheal

Le taobh 'ach dealramh 'raibh ina grua mar ros.

Bheannaios fein go preab don mhaighdean

Agus feasbhaidh ceille ni raibh in mo ghlor,

D'fhiafir me fein di 'raibh aon fhear in Eirinn

A ghlacfadh si 'e roghain orm ins an rod.

D'fhiafir si domhsa ca raibh mo leine,

Mo bhuig, mo bheabhar, 's gan fiu na mbrog,

Go mb'annamh a chonaic sise sac ma eideadh

Ar fhear ag breagadh cailin og.

A chuileann fainneach, ma thug me gra duit

Na cuir i gcas me fa bheith gan doigh,

Agus gheobhaidh tu aoibhneas ar hallai bana,

Fion na Spainne gheobhair seal le hol.

D'fhiafir si domhsa an mar siud ba ghnach liom

Bheith ag siul na n-ardan ar bheagan stro.

Is e duirt me leithi nar chleacht mise 'athrach,

Ach ainnir alainn agus gloine ar bord.

Nil siud ait o iochar Fhanad

Nach bhfuil me i ngra le bean no dho,

Bean sna Rosa thiar i Min na Manrach,

O thaobh Ghleann Atha 'go dti 'n Mhucais Mhor,

Dis i mBaoilleach, dis i mBaineach,

Bean in Arainn 's a chois Ghaoth Dobhair,

O Leitir Ceanainn go dti mullach Ghaigin

'S go Curraoin Mhanuis a chois an roid.

THEME FROM HARRYS GAME by CLANNAD


Imtheochaidh soir is siar

A dtainig ariamh

An ghealach is an ghrian


Fol lol the doh fol the day

Fol the doh fol the day


Imtheochaidh an ghealach's an ghrian

An Daoine og is a chail 'na dhiadh


Fol lol the doh fol the day

Fol lol the doh fol the day

Fol lol the doh fol the day

Translation
I will go east and go west

[To the places] from whence came

The moon and the sun


The moon and the sun will go

And the young man

With his reputation behind him


I will go wherever he came from -

The young man with his reputation behind him

Lookin' round and round again
That's me, oh that's me
Far away on my own again
A day goes by in Tower Hill

Silent screams,
Is there someone at the door?

Light is on, lit fire round
It's me, you're home
Blue and grey, and seas apart
Another night at Tower Hill

Silent screams,
Is there someone at the door?

Silent screams,
Silent screams,
Is there someone at the door?

Sit inline and count to ten
Still near, right here
Movin' round this empty room
I'm sorry now, at Tower Hill

Silent screams,
Is there someone at the door?

By chance it was I met my love
It did me much surprise
Down by a shady myrtle grove
Just as the sun did rise.
The birds they sang right gloriously
And pleasent was the air
And there was non save she and I
among the flowers fair.

In dewy grass and green we walked
She timid was and coy
How can'st thou choose but pity me
My pretty pearl, my joy
How comes it that thou stroll this way?
Sweet maiden tell me true
Before bright Phoebus' glittering ray
Has supped the morning dew?

I go to tend the flocks I love
The ewes and tender lambs
That pasture by the myrtle grove
That gambol by their dams
There I enjoy a pure content
At dawning of the day
Then, hand in hand, we lovers went
To see the flock at play.

And as we wended down the road
I said to her, "Sweet maid,
Three years I in my place abode
And three more must be stayed
The three that I am bound so fast
O fairest wait for me
And when the weary years are past
Then wedded we will be."

"Three years are long, three times too long
Too lengthy the delay"
And then I answered in my song
"Hope wastes them quick away
Where love is fervent, fain and fast
And knoweth not decay
There nimbly fleet the seasons past
Accounted as one day."

I
Ar chonnlaigh ghlais an Fhoghmhair
A stoirin gur dhearc me uaim
Ba deas do chos I mbroig
'Sba ro-dheas do leagan siubhail
Do ghruaidh ar dhath na rosai
'Sdo chuirnini bhi fighte dluith
Monuar gan sinn 'ar bposadh
No'r bord luinge 'triall 'un siubhail
II
Ta buachailli na h-aite seo
A' gartha 'gus ag eirghe teann
Is lucht na gcochan ard
A' deanamh faruis do mo chailin donn
Da ngluaiseadh Ri na Spainne
Thar saile 's a shloighte cruinn
Bhruighfinn fear is fasach
'S bheinn ar laimh le mo chailin donn

III
Ceannacht buaibh ar aontaigh'
Da mbinn agus mo chailin donn
Gluais is tar a chead-searc
No go dteidh muid thar Ghaoth-Bearra 'nonn
Go sgartar o n-a cheile
Barr na gcraobh 's an eala on tuinn
Ni sgarfar sin o cheile

Go rabh a croidhe istuigh I lar mo chleibh
Cum na h-eala is mine
Na'n sioda 's na cluimh na n-ean
Nach trom an osna ghnim-se

'Se chuala m/e De Domhnaigh

Go rabh si 'gabhail 'a posadh
Ar oigfhear da bhfuil san ait
A stoirin glac mo chomhairle
'S a' foghmhar seo fan mar ta

Translation
(From Larry Keith Ogle)

On the green stubble-fields of Autumn
I saw you, my sweetheart
Nice were your feet in shoes
And wonderful your nimble gait
Your hair the color of roses
And your ringlets tightly plaited
Alas that we're not married
Or on board ship sailing away

The boys around here are
Laughing and getting bold
And the people of the high straw?
Are making?? of my brown girl
If the King of Spain would
Go abroad with his assembled men
I would flatten grass and rank grass
And I would be with my brown girl

Buying cows at the fair
If I were? and my brown girl
Go and come first love
Until we go over to Gaoth-Bearra
Until we separate from each other
The tops of the branches and the swan
From the waves?
That won't separate us
And it's only folly for you to put it??

I wrote a letter
To my sweetheart and a sharp complaint
She sent it back to me
That her heart was inside me
Compose the artsswannoble person?
Finer than silk or bird feathers
Heavy is my sigh
When I think of being apart from her

What I heard on Sunday
As conversation among the women
That she was going to be married
To a young man from the place
Sweetheart take my advice
And this Autumn stay as you are
And don't tell anyone, my love
That you are my love

A'nion mhin o, sin anall na fir shuiri
A mhaithair mhin o! cuir na roithlean go dti me

Dulaman na Binne Bui, Dulaman Gaelach
Dulaman na farraige, "s e b"fhearr a bhi in Eirinn

Ta cosa dubha dubailte ar an dulaman gaelach
Ta dha chluais mhaol ar an dulaman gaelach

(Chorus)

Rachaimid go Doire leis an dulaman gaelach
Is ceannoimid broga daora ar an dulaman gaelach

(Chorus)

Broga breaca dubha ar an dulaman gaelach
Ta bearead agus trius ar an dulaman gaelach

(Chorus)

O chuir me sceala chuici, go gceannoinn cior di
'Se an sceal a chuir si chugam, go raibh a ceann ciortha

(Chorus)

O cha bhfaigheann tu mo 'nion, arsa an dulaman gaelach
Bheul, fuadoidh me liom I, arsa an dulaman maorach

(Chorus)

eirigh suas a stoirin mura bfhuil tu do shui
Foscail a' doras agus lig mise 'un ti
Ta buideal I'm aice bhearfas deoch
Do mhnaoi an ti
A's ta suil 'gam nach ndiultuigheann
Tu me fa do nion

Nuair a eirighim amach ar maidin
Agus dearcaim uaim siar
Is dearcaim ar a'bhaile ud a bhfuil
Agam le ghabhail ann
Tuiteann na deora na sroite liom sios
Agus gniomh se mile osna a
Ta cosuil le cumhaidh

I ngleanntain na coilleadh uagni


Is lag bronach a bim
o dhomnach go domhnach 's
Me ag cathamh mo shaol
'me feitheamh gach trathnona ce
Shiuluil 'na rod no ce thiocfadh 'n ti
's gan duine ar an domhan mhor a thiocfadh
's thogfadh mo chroi

A mhaili a cheadsearc na
Treig thusa me go brach
Nach bhfuil me do dhiadh gach aon la
Fa mhalaidh na n-ard
Is tu cruithneach ar mhna eireann
Is tu an pearla 'ta doiligh 'fhail
Is dar mhionna mo bheil ni breag e
Go bhfuil me leatsa I ngra

Ag feis no dail nil bean le fail
Chomh sciamhach le mo Mhaire
Ta aice cneas bog ban a 's deas
Do chuirfeadh lil' faoi naire;
'san domhan seo, nil aon chroi chomh dil
No cailin ta nios fire -
'measc og no sean 'si plur na mban
Is ise brod na tire.

Ta gruaig mo stoir mar fhainni oir
A'titim sios go talamh;
Thar muineal ban a 's guaille lan
A cuma 'ta mar dhealbh.
Gi glan soilear gach realt 'san speir
Ta suil mo ghra nios glaine
's binne glor mo chailin oig
Na clairsi ciuin na cruinne.

'Measc aos og i leathar brog
Ar urlar, cuirt no pairliuin
Nior sheas le taobh aon fhear ariamh
Bean-rinceoir leath chomh halainn
Ma bhris si croi aon oganiagh
Gan breag do bhris si ceadta
'gus ta na mna fail bhais gach la
Le troim'is neart a n-eada.

Ag feis no dail nil bean le fail
Chomh sciamhach le mo Mhaire
Ta aice cneas bog ban a 's deas
Do chuirfeadh lil' faoi naire;
'san domhan seo, nil aon chroi chomh dil
No cailin ta nios fire -
'measc og no sean 'si plur na mban
Is ise brod na tire.

I wish I was on yonder hill
'Tis there I'd sit and cry my fill,
And every tear would turn a mill,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel,
I'll sell my only spinning wheel,
To buy my love a sword of steel
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red,
And 'round the world I'll beg my bread,
Until my parents shall wish me dead,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain,
I wish I had my heart again,
And vainly think I'd not complain,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

But now my love has gone to France,
To try his fortune to advance;
If he e'er come back, 'tis but a chance,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

Shule, shule, shule aroon,
Shule go succir agus, shule go kewn,
Shule go durrus oggus aylig lume,
Iss guh day thoo avorneen slawn.

There is a place on the east
Mysterious ring, a Magical Ring of Stones
The druids have lived there once they said,
forgotten is the race that no-one knows.

Chorus:
Rum de rum 'rud a derimo
Rum de rum 'rud a derimo

The circled tomb of a different age
Secret lines carved on ancient stone.
Heroic Kings laid down to rest
Forgotten is the race that no-one knows.

Wait for the sun on a winter's day
and a beam of light shines across the floor.
Mysterious ring, a Magical Ring.
But forgotten is the race that no-one knows.

With the sun right through,
departed into darkness,
I need someone too;
The fantasy and you

Now is here,
Here is now
Na na na na

You inspire
Peace of heart
Na na na na

With the words like air
The destiny we share
Is a dream come true
The fantasy and you

Is cosuil gur mheath tu no gur threig tu an greann
Ta an sneachta go freasach fa bheal na mbeann'
Do chul bui daite is do bheilin samh
Siud chugaibh Mary Chinidh is i ndiaidh an Eirne shnamh

"A mhaithrin mhilis" duirt Maire bhan
Fa bhruach an chladaigh is fa bheal na tra
"Maighdean mhara mo mhaithrin ard"
Siud chugaibh Mary Chinidh is i ndiaidh an Eirne shnamh

Ta mise tuirseach agus beidh go la
Mo Mhaire bhruinneall is mo Phadraig ban
Ar bharr na dtonnta is fa bheal na tra
Siud chugaibh Mary Chinidh is i ndiaidh an Eirne shnamh

Bhi mise i ngra le cailin
Le blianta anuas

Ach go tobann thanaig si chugam
Le sceal a bhris mo chroi

Chuartaigh mise thoir

Chuartaigh me aris fe dho
Go dtainig an la ar phill mo ghra

Take me for a walk in the morning dew, honey
Take me for a walk in the morning dew today
You can't go walking in the morning dew, my love
You can't go walking in the morning dew today

Oh listen, I hear some moaning on
I know I hear a man moaning on
You didn't hear a man moan at all
You didn't hear a man moan at all

But I know I hear my baby crying, "Mama"
I know I hear my daughter crying, "Mama"
You'll never hear your baby cry again
You'll never hear your baby cry again

You'll never hear your baby cry again
You'll never hear your baby cry again

Take me for a walk in the morning dew, honey
Take me for a walk in the morning dew today
You can't go walking in the morning dew, my love
You can't go walking in the morning dew today
You can't go walking in the morning dew today

It was on a fine summer's morning
The birds sweetly tune on each bough
And as I walked out for my pleasure
I saw a maid milking a cow

Her voice was so enchanting, melodious
Left me quite unable to go
My heart, it was loaded with sorrow
For the pretty maid milking her cow

Then to her I made my advances
"good morrow most beautiful maid
Your beauty my heart so entrances"
"pray sir do not banter," she said


"i'm not such a rare precious jewel
That I should enamour you so
I am but a poor little milk girl,"
Says the pretty maid milking her cow

The indies afford no such jewel
So bright, so transparently clear
I do not add things to my funeral
Consent but to know me my dear

Oh, had I the lamp of aladdin
Or the wealth that gold mines can bestow
I'd rather be poor in a cottage
With the pretty girl milking her cow.
