Chorus (after each verse)
:
|
|
Dún do shúil, a rún mo chroí
|
Close your eyes, machree
|
|
A chuid den tsaol, 's a ghrá liom
|
My worldly joy, my treasure
|
|
Dún do shúil, a rún mo chroí
|
Close your eyes, machree
|
|
Agus gheobhair feirín amárach
|
And you will get a present tomorrow
|
|
|
|
|
Tá do dheaid ag teacht gan mhoill ón chnoc
|
Your dad is coming from the hills
|
|
Agus cearca fraoich ar láimh leis
|
With game and grouse in plenty
|
|
Agus codlaidh go ciúin 'do luí sa choid
|
So close your eyes, my love, my joy
|
|
Agus gheobhair feirín amárach
|
And you will get a present tomorrow
|
|
|
|
|
Tá an samhradh ag teacht le grian is le teas
|
The summer sun shines bright and warm
|
|
Agus duilliúr ghlas ar phrátaí
|
And potato stalks grow greener
|
|
Tá an ghaoth ag teacht go fial aneas
|
A bracing breeze blows from the south
|
|
Agus gheobhaimid iasc amárach
|
And we will have fish tomorrow
|
