lyrics

Poem:
Glass uar errach aigide,
uacht ina gaith gignither,
glaidsit lachain linnuisci,
luind cendach corr cruadeigme
Cluinit cuana a ndithrebaib
fri h'eirge moch matanraid
duscit eonu a hinnsenaib
mor bfiad riasu bfirteititt -
a fid, a feor glass..

(Orig.Trans. - kept in orig.poetic form):

Spring with a chill bite is borne,
the breeze cast in whispers cool;
the cry of ducks' held on high,
and the hard tune of the crane's call.
The cadence of hounds is heard
as haled are morning's marches,
moving to life all the land;
it's light a glittering guide
where glens and grass spring....
