[English Lyrics]

[Verse 1]
Maidin is tús an lae
's fágaim mo bhaile
Tá mo chroíse go brón
's fad ar shiúl m'óige

[Bridge]
Oíche is mé liom féin
Spéartha dubh go domhain, a choích
Ag cuimhneach ar laethanta a bhí
Gan ghá agus gan ghruaim
Eistim leis an ghaoth
Uaigneas mór, go deo, a choích

[Verse 2]
Deireadh an turas mór
Táim brónach, buartha 's briste
I mo dhiaidh nach mbeidh níos mó
Ach, tá sé I ndán dúinn, a pháistí

[Verse 3]
Is fada anois an lá
A d'fhág mé mo bhaile
Níl áthas I mo chroí
Níl ann ach an marbh
