Lyrics: English Translation:
   
Rí do shaoil King of your life
Mar craobh ghlas __ Like a green branch __
Ar chrann a bhí suite i ngleann dubh On a tree situated in a dark glen
'S an guth binn __ And a sweet voice __
Dóchas mo chléibh Hope of my heart
'S tú teanga mo mhuintir 's mo shaoil romham You're the language of my people and my life before me
   
Curfá: Chorus:
Dealramh go deo Shine forever
Ar fhada beo ___ alive
Dealramh go deo Shine forever
Ar ___ ___
Dealramh go deo Shine forever
__ sa cheo __ mist
Dealramh go deo Shine forever
   
Na cumha chaillte fhéin My own lost lonliness
Muileann no __ A mill __
'S mé 'g éisteacht na ceolta mo thíre I'm listening to the music of my country
Le mothú, brón is brí With feeling, sadness and meaning
Cuir lúcháir ar mo chroí Puts joy in my heart
'S tú ceol mo shinsear 's mo shaoil romham You're the music of my ancestors and my life before me
   
(Curfá 3x) (Chorus 3x)
