Maidin is t탺s an lae
Is f탡gaim mo bhaile
T탡 mo chroíƒse go br탳
Is fad ar shi탺l m'탳ige
Oíƒche is m탩 liom f탩in
Sp탩artha dubh go domhain, a choíƒch
Ag cuimhneach ar laethanta a bhíƒ
Gan gh탡 agus gan ghruaim
Eistim leis an ghaoth
Uaigneas m탳r, go deo, a choíƒch
Deireadh an turas m탳r
T탡im br탳nach, buartha 's briste
I mo dhiaidh nach mbeidh íƒos m탳
Ach, t탡 s탩 i nd탡 d탺inn, a ph탡istíƒ
Is fada anois an l탡
A d'fh탡g m탩 mo bhaile
Níƒl 탡thas i mo chroíƒ
Níƒl ann ach an marbh.
(Translation:
And I Leave My Home
Morning and the day's beginning
And I leave my home
My heart is breaking
My youth is long past
Night and I am alone
Endless deep black skies
Remembering days that were
Without want and without gloom
I listen to the wind
Endless great loneliness forever
The end of the long journey
I am sad, sorrowful, broken
After me there will be no more (of my kind)
But children, it is our destiny
The day is long past
When I left my home
There is no hope in my heart
There is only death )
