English Translation: |
| |
|
|
Ann am baile fada bhuainn |
In a town far away |
|
Rugadh leanabh beag an aigh |
A little child was born |
|
Ann am frasach blath an stabuill |
In a warm manger in a stable |
|
Iosa Criosd' ar Tighearn' ar Righ |
Jesus Christ, our Lord and King |
|
Ba, ba, ba, ba |
Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep |
|
Ba, ba, mo leanabh beag ba |
Sleep, sleep, my little child, sleep |
| |
|
|
Anns na neamhan os ur cionn |
In the heavens above |
|
Bha an rionnag beag a b'aill |
There was the most beautiful star |
|
Leanaidh sinne i mar chairt iuil |
We shall follow it as a guide |
|
Iosa Criosd' ar Tighearn' ar Righ |
Jesus Christ, our Lord and King |
|
Ba, ba, ba, ba |
Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep |
|
Ba, ba, mo leanabh beag ba |
Sleep, sleep, my little child, sleep |
| |
|
|
Sinne bu choir a bhith iriosal |
We should be humble |
|
'S a bhith uasal as ar Righ |
And honor our King |
|
Mar chuid chiobairean ga leantail |
To follow him like shepherds |
|
Iosa Criosd' ar Tighearn' ar Righ |
Jesus Christ, our Lord and King |
|
Ba, ba, ba, ba |
Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep |
|
Ba, ba, mo leanabh beag ba |
Sleep, sleep, my little child, sleep |
|
Ba, ba, ba, ba |
Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep |
|
Ba, ba, mo leanabh beag ba |
Sleep, sleep, my little child, sleep |
