Ag Caoineadh ar an uaigneas mуr
Na deora, go brуnach
Na gcodladh ins an uaigh ghlas chiъin

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

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. )
