Lyrics: English Translation:
   
Is mór an trua é truailliú na farraige The pollution of the ocean is a pity
Is fearr liom mó sháigh fairsinge na gorta I prefer to have my fill than famine
Is fearr liom fhéin siocháin na cogadh I personally prefer peace to war
Is lig domh mo shaol a chonaí is a choinneáil slán And let me live my life and stay safe
Is mór an trua é is mór an trua é It's a pity, it's a pity
Is mór an trua é trualliú na farraige The pollution of the ocean is a pity
(2x) (2x)
   
Look around and see the choice you've made
Turn around, see clouded spaces
Hear the cries of future darkness
Time is running out, our life to live
 
   
Why turn a blind eye?
Why can't you hear us?
Too late, too late, la la la low
Too late to defend us
Why can't you hear us?
Hear us, hear us
 
   
Seoithín seó mó chroí go deo Seoithín seó my heart forever
Ag teach's ag imeacht... Coming and going...
   
Seoithín seó mó chroí go deo Seoithín seó my heart forever
Fearg, scrios, crá... Anger, destruction, torment...
   
Is mór an trua é truailliú na farraige The pollution of the ocean is a pity
Is fearr liom mó sháigh fairsinge na gorta I prefer to have my fill than famine
Is fearr liom fhéin siocháin na cogadh I personally prefer peace to war
Is lig domh mo shaol a chonaí is a choinneáil slán And let me live my life and stay safe
   
Is mór an trua é truailliú na farraige The pollution of the ocean is a pity
Is fearr liom mó sháigh fairsinge na gorta I prefer to have my fill than famine
Is fearr liom fhéin siocháin na cogadh I personally prefer peace to war
Is lig domh mo shaol a chonaí is a choinneáil slán And let me live my life and stay safe
Is mór an trua é is mór an trua é It's a pity, it's a pity
Is mór an trua é trualliú na farraige The pollution of the ocean is a pity
   
Look around and see the choice you've made
Turn around, see clouded spaces
Hear the cries of future darkness
Time is running out, our life to live
