Liricí Lyrics
É, é, ó, é, ó x8
Véarsa 1.
Uair ‘a bhí mé ag ligeann scíth, rith smaoineamh liom:
Once [when] I was resting, a thought came to me.
Mol an óige ‘s tiocfaidh sí ‘mar is dual di.
Praise the young and it will thrive [just] as it should be.
Curfá Chorus:
‘S muid ag lorg ár n-áit dár dtír bheag álainn
And we searching for our place in our beautiful small land
In san domhan. Tá ár tseoid fhéin ann.
In the world. Our own jewel [the language] is there.
‘Ach í a labhairt amach le cion.
[It’s] just we should just speak (out) it with affection.
Ach dún do shúile go ciúin agus samhlaigh go bhfuil
But close your eyes quietly and imagine that
sí fós inár gcroíthe.
it is still in our hearts.
‘S bí ‘brionglóid go suan agus cuimhnigh:
And dream soundly and remember that
Bhí sí linn ón gcéad lá riamh.
It was here right from the start (from the 1st day ever).
Ghabhfadh muid ó neart go neart ar scáth a chéile X2
We would go from strength to strength working together.
Véarsa 2.
Tá mo chroí dóchasach. Feicim fíor na spéire.
My heart is hopeful. I see the horizon.
‘Íomhá is deise liom: éirigh na gréine.
[The] most beautiful image to me: the rising of the sun.
Curfá Chorus
É, é, ó, é, ó x4
Déan do chuid fhéin ar a son. ‘Sé suas duitse ‘s dom. X2
Do your own bit for its sake. It’s up to you and me.
Curfá le / Chorus with
Déan do chuid fhéin ar a son. ‘Sé suas duitse ‘s dom. X2
Do your own bit for its sake. It’s up to you and me.
Ach dún do shúile go ciúin agus samhlaigh go bhfuil
But close your eyes quietly and imagine that
sí fós inár gcroíthe.
we still have it in our hearts.
É, é, ó, é, ó x8
