|
|
|
|
I mo aonar dom aréir
|
On my own last night
|
|
I mo shuí cois mara
|
Sitting by the shore
|
|
An spéir ar ghann chuid néal
|
The sky was short of stars
|
|
'S an muir is tír faoi chalm
|
And the sea all quiet and calm
|
|
Do chumhraíocht ríonda
|
Your shimmering queenly presence
|
|
A scáiligh ar scáileán m'aigne
|
Was cast onto my mind's screen
|
|
Cé loinnir deiridh mo ghrá duit
|
Although any spark of love for you
|
|
A shíleas bheith in éag le fada
|
I thought had long since gone
|
|
|
|
|
Ghlaos d'ainm go ceanúil
|
I called your name softly
|
|
Mar ba ghnách liom tamall
|
As I used to before
|
|
'S chuala scread scáfar
|
And I heard a sad scream
|
|
Ó éan uaigneach cladaigh
|
From a lonely sea-bird
|
|
Maith dhom murab fhál leat fiú
|
Forgive me if you didn't even want
|
|
Do scáth dhil im'aice
|
Your lovely shadow beside me
|
|
Ach bhí an spéir ar ghann chuid néal
|
But the sky was short of stars
|
|
'S an muir is an tír faoi chalm
|
And the sea all quiet and calm
|
|
|
|
|
Maith dhom, maith dhom
|
Forgive me, forgive me
|
|
Faoi an spéir ar ghann chuid néal
|
Under the sky was short of stars
|
|
'S an muir is an tír faoi chalm
|
And the sea all quiet and calm
|
