| Lyrics: | English Translation: |
| Lá na mara | The day of the sea |
| Lá na mara nó rabharta | The day of the sea or of the high tides |
| Guth na dtonnta a leanadh | To follow the voice of the waves |
| Guth na dtonnta a leanfad ó | I would follow the voice of the waves |
| Lá na mara nó lom trá | The day of the sea or the ebb tide |
| Lá na mara nó rabharta | The day of the sea or of the high tides |
| Lá an ghainimh, lom trá | The day of the sands, the ebb tide |
| Lá an ghainimh | The day of the sands |
|
Can you feel the river run? Waves are dancing to the sun Take the tide and face the sea And find a way to follow me |
|
|
Leave the field and leave the fire And find the flame of your desire Set your heart on this far shore And sing your dream to me once more |
|
| Chorus: | |
| 'Sé mo laoch mo ghile mear | He is my hero, my dashing darling |
| 'Sé mo Shéasar, gile mear | He is my Caesar, dashing darling |
| Suan gan séan ní bhfuair mé féin | Rest or pleasure I did not get |
| Ó chuaigh i gcéin mo ghile mear | Since he went far away, my darling |
|
Now the time has come to leave Keep the flame and still believe Know that love will shine through darkness One bright star to light the wave |
|
| (Chorus) | |
| Amhrán na farraige | Song of the sea |
| Ór ar na seolta | Gold on the sails |
| Amhrán na farraige | Song of the sea |
| Ag seoladh na bhfonnta... | Sending the melodies... |
|
Lift your voice and raise the sail Know that love will never fail Know that I will sing to you Each night as I dream of you |
|
| (Chorus) | |
| Ag seinm na farraige | Playing the sea |
| Ag seinm na farraige | Playing the sea |
| Seinn... | Play... |
| (Chorus) | |
|
Gile mear, the wind and sun The sleep is over, dream is done To the west where fire sets To the gile mear, the day begun |
|
| (Chorus 2x) | |
| Ó chuaigh i gcéin mo ghile mear | Since he went far away, my darling |
| Amhrán na farraige | Song of the sea |
| Ór ar na seolta | Gold on the sails |
| Ag seoladh na bhfonnta | Sending the melodies |
