(d'aodh agus do mháire u?dhúgain)

Éist le mo chro?

Go brónach a choích

T?m?cailte gan t?'s do bhean cheile.

An gr?mór i do shaoil

Threora?s?me.

Bíg?liomsa i gconái

L?'s oích.





Chorus:





Ag caoineadh ar an uaigneas mór

Na deora, go brónach

Na gcodladh ins an uaigh ghlas chiúin

Faoi shuaimhneas, go domhain





Aoibhneas a bh?ach d'imigh sin

S?lean t?do fhear chéile.





Smaointe, ar an l?raibh sibh ar mo thaobh

Ag ínse scéil

Ar an dóigh a bh?is cuimhin liom an l?gan gha'sgan ghruaim

Bíg?liomsa i gcona?l?'s oích.

Thoughts

(to my maternal grandparents)

Literally: "for hugh and mary duggan"

-----------------------------------



Listen to my heart,

Forever sad

I'm lost without you

And your wife.

*the great love in your life

Will guide me.

Be (plural) with me always

Day and night. **



Chorus:



Weeping in great loneliness

The tears, sorrowfully

Asleep in the quiet green grave

In a deep peace.





There was blissfulness

But that is gone

You followed

Your husband.



[repeat * -> ** and chorus]



Thoughts of the day.

You were (both) at my side

Telling tales

Of how things were.

I remember the day

Without sting and without gloom

Be (plural) with me always

Day and night. )
