Lyrics

Sung in Irish

Éist, a thaisce,
Listen, my darling,

Bím leatsa i gcónaí.
I am always with you.

Féach suas, go bhfeice tú a foscadh.
Look up and see her shelter.

Cloisim siosarnach sna duilleoga tharainn
I hear a whisper in the leaves around us.

Seas go hard.
Stand tall.

Sín amach do lámha, ar nós an Crann Darach.
Reach out your arms, as the Oak tree.

Seas go hard.
Stand tall.

Go raibh a fréamhacha mar chosán romhat.
May her roots be as a path before you.

Airím chomh slán sin anseo.
I feel so safe here.

Bím leatsa i gcónaí.
I am always with you.

I will grow in her shelter.
Fásfaidh mé ar a scáth.

Fásfaidh tú ar a scáth.
You will grow under her shelter

Leatsa I gcónaí.
… with you always

Breathnaímid le bród ar a ceannbhrat.
We gaze with pride upon her canopy.
