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