Close your eyes, my love, my My precious child, mo stóirín (my darling)
Dún do shúil, rún mo chroí (Close your eyes, oh love of my heart) Is gheobhair feirín amárach 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
Your father comes the 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 joy, my treasure) Dún do a rún mo chroí (Close your oh love of my heart) Agus gheobhair feirín amárach (And you will get a present tomorrow)
