Ta 'me Mo Shui Lyrics - Clannad

T m mo shu 

(I am sitting) 

T m mo shu d`irigh`n ghealach arir 

Ag cur tein-e sos-go buan is fad go gar 

T bunadh a` t `na lu is t mise liom fin 

T na coiligh ag glaoch `san saol `na gcodladh ach m 

I am sitting up since the moon arose last night 

Putting down a fire again and again and keeping it lit 

The family is in bed and here am I by myself, 

The cocks are crowing and the country is asleep but me. 

`Sheacht mh`anam dag do bhal do mhala is do ghrua 

Do shil ghorm ghl-gheal fr thrig m sionnach na lb 

Le cumha do dhiaidh n lir dom an bealach a shiil 

Is a charaid mo chlibh t na slibhte `dul idir m`s t 

I love your mouth, your eyebrows and your cheeks 

Your bright blue eyes for whose sake I stopped hunting the wily fox 

In longing for you I cannot see to walk the road 

Friend of my bosom, the mountains lie between me and you. 

Deiridh lucht linn gur claoite an galar an gr 

Char admhaigh m is `ndiaidh mo chro istigh a chr 

Aicid r-ghar, faraor nr sheachain m 

Is go gcuireann s arraing is cad go gar tr cheart-lr mo chro 

Learned men say that love is a fatal sickness 

I never admitted it until now that my heart is broken: 

It's a very painful illness, alas, I have not avoided it, 

And it sends a hundred arrows through the core of my heart. 

Casadh bean-ts dom thos ag Lios Bhal an Átha 

D`fhiafraigh m di an scaoilfeadh glas ar bith gr 

Is dirt s gos seal i mbriathra soineannta simh 

"An gr a thid fn chro n scaoiltear as go brth" 

I met a fairy woman at the Rath of Beal an Atha 

I asked her would any key unlock the love in my heart 

And she said in soft simple language 

"When love enters the heart it will never be driven from it".
