Lyrics: |
English Translation: |
| |
|
|
Aodan mor mar chaise buidhe |
Round face like a yellow cheese |
|
Da shuil mhor mar mhuir-lan liath |
Two large gray eyes |
|
Sronag bheag mar phutan airgid |
Button nose |
|
'S plionas gaire coimhead orm sios |
Looking down at me with a smile |
| |
|

Chorus (after each verse): |
|
O cho mor 's cho slan 's a tha thu |
You are so big and round |
|
Lasadh solus soilleir breagh' |
Shining brightly |
|
O cho mor 's cho slan 's a tha thu |
You are so big and round |
|
Nad' dheise spaideil, shoilleir bhreagh |
In your shiny suit |
| |
|
|
Rionnagan grinne sgaipte timchioll |
Stars around you |
|
Mar soluis Nollaige priopadh suil |
Twinkling like a Christmas tree |
|
Cumail smachd air gach fear dhuibh |
Responsible for each one |
|
'S bodach na Gealaiche ri'n taobh |
The man in the moon beside them |
| |
|
|
B'fhearr leam fhein gun robh mi comhl' riut |
I wish I was with you |
|
Cluich' falach fead air feadh na neoil |
Playing hide and seek |
|
Sinn' mar lasair anns na speuran |
Like a light in the heavens |
|
Coimhead sios air saoghal mor cruinn |
Looking down on the world |
