Chuaigh mé isteach i dteach aréir is d'iarr mé cairde ar mhnaoi an leanna. Is é dúirt sí liom "Ní bhfaighidh tú deor. Buail an bóthar is gabh abhaile
I came by a house last night And told the woman I am staying I said to her: "The moon is bright and my fiddles tuned for playing"
Tell me that the night is long Tell me that the moon is glowing Fill my glass, I'll sing a song And will start the music flowing
Never mind the rising light There's no sign of day or dawning In my heart it's still the night And we'll stay here till the morning
Chorus: Níl sé ina lá, níl a ghrá, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go maidin, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go fóill, solas ard atá sa ghealaigh.
It's not day nor yet awhile I can see the starlight shining Níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go fóill, solas ard atá sa ghealaigh.
Fill the glasses one more time And never heed the empty bottle Turn the water into wine And turn the party up full throttle
Don't go out into the cold Where the wind and rain are blowing For the fire is flamming gold And in here the music's flowing
Níl sé ina lá, níl a ghrá, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go maidin, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go fóill, solas ard atá sa ghealaigh.
Tell me that the night is long Tell me that the moon is gleaming Fill my glass, I'll sing a song And we'll keep the music streaming Until all the songs are sung
Níl sé ina lá, níl a ghrá, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go maidin, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go fóill, solas ard atá sa ghealaigh.
Níl sé ina lá, níl a ghrá, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go maidin, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go fóill, solas ard atá sa ghealaigh.
(Drum Solo)
Níl sé ina lá, níl a ghrá, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go maidin, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go fóill, solas ard atá sa ghealaigh.
Níl sé ina lá, níl a ghrá, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go maidin, níl sé ina lá is ní bheidh go fóill, solas ard atá sa ghealaigh
