Lyrics
Cad a dhéanfaimid feasta gan adhmad?
Tá deireadh na gcoillte ar lár
Níl trácht ar Chill Chais ná a teaghlach
'S ní chluinfear a cling go brách
An áit úd 'na gcónaíodh an dei-bhean
Fuair gradam is meidhir thar mnáibh
Bhíodh iarlaí ag tarraingt thar toinn ann
'S an t-Aifreann binn dá rá
Ní chluinim fuaim lachan ná gé ann
Ná iolar ag éamh cois cuain
Ná fiú na mbeacha chun saothair
Thabharfadh mil agus céir don tslua
Níl ceol binn milis na n-éan ann
Le hamharc an lae dul uainn
Ná an chuaichín i mbarra na gcraobh ann
Ó's í chuirfeadh an saol chun suain
Aicim ar Mhuire 's ar Íosa
Go dtaga sí arís chughainn slán
Go mbeidh rincí fada 'gabháil timpeall
Ceol fidil 's tinte cnámh
Go dtógfar an baile seo ár sinsear
Cill Chais bhreá, arís go hard
Is go brách nó go dtiocfaidh and díle
Ná feicfear é arís ar lár
Lyrics translation
What we will do in the future without wood?
Is the end of the woods on the middle
Not to mention the Cell Case than her family
'S not chluinfear to cling to forever
The place of ca 'the gcónaíodh the dei-woman
Received award for most meidhir over mnáibh
Formerly the earls of pulling over, especially there
'S the Mass peaks of two say
Not chluinim sound of a duck than a goose there
Than an eagle cry waterfront
Than even the bees to labor
Give honey and wax to the crowd
There is sweet music sweet of birds there
With the sighting of the day go away
Than the chuaichín in the bar of the branches there
From's she would have the life to sleep
Aicim on our Lady 's Jesus
Come she again periods safe
That dances long 'run around
Music fiddle 's bonfires
That built the home of our ancestors
Cell Case fine, again high
Is that for ever or come and deluge
Than will see it again on the middle
