Sailing away to deeper oceans
Hearts are weary
These sleepless nights are hard
But I'm still longing for the hand that led me
Where I had spent my youth away D'fhg m sln ag na daoine' t fgtha
'San talamh a rugadh m
D'fhg m sln ag daoine istigh i mo chro
Sin mar a bheas chiche
(I said farewell to everyone I love)
(And the land that I'll never see again) Sweeping the waves to foreign mountains
Strange and lonely
I struggle to be brave
How I tremble remembering your brown eyes
Don't let my memories fade away D'fhg m sln ag na daoine' t fgtha
'San talamh a rugadh m
D'fhg m sln ag daoine istigh i mo chro
Sin mar a bheas chiche
