A bheabaí, [seo] mo chréacht nimhe X2
Baby, [this is]my poisoned wound X2
[Í bheith] ciaptha is céasta trí bliana déag, ag marú an spraoi atá inti.
[She being] tormented and tortured for 13 years, killing the joy that is in her.
Níl bun ná barr… An athóidh sé go brách? Fiú más toil gach éinne é.
There’s no sense … Will it ever change? Even if everyone wants it to.
I do dhiaidh, i do dhiaidh: chaith mé a raibh ’am ag rith i do dhiaidh.
Longing for you: I spent all I had in me, chasing you.
Cé hé an té ‘a bhfuil tú leis anois? Cé hé? Cé hé?
Who are you with now? Who? Who?
Curfá
Níl mé ag iarraidh ach aon seans tú a choinneáil docht i mo ghreim.
I’m only looking for one chance to keep a tight grip on you
Geábh amháin nó níos mó sula dtéann tú ar fán uaim go deo.
One run home or more, before you go astray from me forever.
Níl mé ag iarraidh ach aon seans tú a choinneáil docht i mo ghreim.
I’m only looking for one chance to keep a tight grip on you
Geábh amháin nó níos mó, is tú ar fán uaim go deo.
One run home or more, now you’re astray from me forever.

A bheabaí, a bheabaí, [seo] mo chréacht nimhe.X2
Baby, baby, [this is] my poisoned wound X2
Is tú an macalla i mo ghlór. An airíonn tú mé? I gcónaí liom, istigh ionam.
You are the echo in my voice. Do you feel it? Always with me, in me.
Briseann an dúchas tríd na deora go do bhuíochas ar d’aghaidh..
Old ways break through the tears to the thanks your face reveals.

‘Bhfuil muid in ann? X3
Are we able? X3
‘Bhfuil se uilig ina bhrionglóidín? ‘Bhfuil muid in ann?
Is it all just a little dream? Are we able?
Tá sé in am ’ainn éirí is tabhairt faoi. ‘Bhfuil muid in ann?
It’s time to rise and go for it. Are we able?

Atlantis: Tír óg na saoi, tír óg na saoi. An bhfuil muid in ann?
Atlantis: young land of the wise. Are we able?
Ní brionglóid í. Tá an dóchas do mo ardú taobh istigh.
It’s not [just] a dream. Hope is raising me up inside.
Is féidir. Is féidir. Le neart, IS féidir. X2 Is féidir. Le neart, is féidir.
We can. We can. With strength we CAN. X2 We can. With strength, we can.
