|
Ag amharc trí m'óige, sé mé bhí sámh |
Looking back over my youth, I was content |
Gan eolas marbh, bhí mé óg, gan am |
Without knowledge of death, I was young, without time |
Anois, táim buartha, 's fad ar shiúl an lá |
Now, I'm sorrowful, the day is long past |
Ochón is ochón ó |
Sadness and loss |
|
|
Na laetha geal m'óige |
The bright days of my youth |
Bhí siad lán de dhóchas |
They were full of hope |
An bealach mór a bhí romham ansin |
The great journey that was before me then |
Bhí sé i ndán dom go mbeadh mé |
Happiness was in store for me |
Slán, slán |
Good-bye, good-bye |
|
|
Anois, táim buartha, 's fad ar shiúl an lá |
Now, I'm sorrowful, the day is long past |
Ochón is ochón ó |
Sadness and loss |
|

Na laetha geal m'óige |
The bright days of my youth |
Bhí siad lán de dhóchas |
They were full of hope |
An bealach mór a bhí romham ansin |
The great journey that was before me then |
Bhí sé i ndán dom go mbeadh mé |
Happiness was in store for me |
Slán, slán |
Good-bye, good-bye |
|
|
Anois, táim buartha, 's fad ar shiúl an lá |
Now, I'm sorrowful, the day is long past |
Ochón is ochón ó |
Sadness and loss |
