Celtic Lullaby

O ancient lullaby
Of Celtic mind,
Caress me once again!
My wounds you heal;
Let me feel
Your soothing hands again.

Silver pipes and
A strumming lute
Dance round harps of gold.
A cascade of hues
As the music moves
Throughout the land of old.

Nár lige Dia*
Your music should cease!
Sing to me, O song!
From the morning to night
In dark and light,
Sing all night long!

A sweet, tender kiss
Is like to your tune
Causing pain to flee
Though few can hear
Your true melody clear
Fill me with esprit!
