Thanks to Paul Orhan for finding this beautiful piece of Gaelic music from Maire Brennnan of Clannad
I found a translation to english, can someone post the Gaelic please?
Little how I know your ways
I'm a fool
Still the fire in my heart
Never leaves me
Time past won't disappear
Memories stay
Never to die
My heart will never change
Ce leis an dolas
I measc mo dhaoine
Bimse uaigneach
(Whose is the sorrow among my people
I feel alone)
Strange now it's too late for me
By myself
Empty as the days go by
Without you
Haunting me
Movements of a clouded sky
And it rains
Peaceful is the dark at night
Full of silence
I have been listening to Gaelic music since high school. My favorite is Mary O'hara, but she doesn't have a lot on youtube.
OMG I found my absolutely favorite song!!! What do you think???
Crochfaidh mé seolta is rachaidh mé siar,
Óró mo churaichín ó!
'S go hOíche Fhéil' Eoin ní thiocfaidh mé aniar,
Óró mo bháidín!
Curfa (Chorus):
Óró mo churaichín ó!
Óró mo bháidín,
Óró mo churaichín ó!
Óró mo bháidín!
Nach breá í mo bháidín ag snámh ar a' gcuan,
Óró mo churaichín ó,
'S na céaslaí á dtarraingt go láidir 's go buan,
Óró mo bháidín.
(Chorus)
Nach lúfar í ag iomramh soir agus siar,
Óró mo churaichín ó,
'S a sárú ní bhfaighidh tú ó Árainn go Cliar,
Óró mo bháidín.
(Chorus)
This is a slightly different version, but at least it has a translation.
Lyrics: English Translation:
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Ag snámh ar a'gcuan /As she glides in the bay
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Faighimis na maidi /Let's get the sticks
Agus téimis chun siuil /And we'll row on
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Óró mo churaichín ó /Oh my little curragh
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Crochfaidh mé seolta /I will raise the sails
Is rachaidh mé siar /And I will go west
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
'S go hOíche Fhéil' Eoin /And until St. John's night
Ní thiocfaidh mé aniar /I will not return
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Óró mo churaichín ó /Oh my little curragh
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Ag snámh ar a'gcuan /As she glides in the bay
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Faighimis na maidi /Let's get the sticks
Agus téimis chun siuil /And we'll row on
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Óró mo churaichín ó /Oh my little curragh
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
Óró mo churaichín ó /Oh my little curragh
Óró mo bháidín /Oh my little boat
