Close your eyes, love, my own My precious child, mo stóirín darling)
Dún do shúil, a rún mo chroí (Close your eyes, oh love of my heart) gheobhair feirín amárach (And you will get a present tomorrow)
The summer's come with warmth and sun The grainy leaves are growing Softly sleep while watch I keep The breezes gently blowing
father comes across the land With gifts for and for me Ducks and eggs in either And freshest fish from Tra Li
Dún do shúil, a rún mo chroí (Close your eyes, oh love of my heart) A den tsaol, 's a ghrá liom (My worldly joy, my treasure) do shúil, a rún mo chroí (Close your eyes, love of my heart) Agus gheobhair feirín amárach (And you will get a present tomorrow)
