Mo Ghile Mear -The Chieftains /Sting

'S émo laoch mo Ghile Mear

'S émo Chaesar Ghile Mear

Suan n ás éan n íbhfuaireas f éin

Óchuaigh I gc éin mo Ghile Mear

'S émo laoch mo Ghile Mear

'S émo Chaesar Ghile Mear

Suan n ás éan n íbhfuaireas f éin

Óchuaigh I gc éin mo Ghile Mear

Grief and pain are all I know

My heart is sore

My tears a'flow

We saw him go I walk with you

No word we know of him in my home

'S émo laoch mo Ghile Mear

'S émo Chaesar Ghile Mear

Suan n ás éan n íbhfuaireas f éin

Óchuaigh I gc éin mo Ghile Mear

A proud and gallant chevalier

A high man's scion of gentle mien

A fiery blade engaged to reap

He'd break the bravest in the field

'S émo laoch mo Ghile Mear

'S émo Chaesar Ghile Mear

Suan n ás éan n íbhfuaireas f éin

Óchuaigh I gc éin mo Ghile Mear

Come sing his praise as sweet harps play

And proudly toast his noble frame

With spirit and with mind aflame

So wish him strength and length of days

'S émo laoch mo Ghile Mear

'S émo Chaesar Ghile Mear

Suan n ás éan n íbhfuaireas f éin

Óchuaigh I gc éin mo Ghile Mear

'S émo laoch mo Ghile Mear

'S émo Chaesar Ghile Mear

Suan n ás éan n íbhfuaireas f éin

Óchuaigh I gc éin mo Ghile Mear
