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