• Crucan Na Bpaiste

Is briste mo chroí, is uaigneach mo shlí
Is mo stóirín in a luí is mé cráite;
‘S é deireadh mo shaol, is mo chailín beag rua
Sínte i gCrucán na bPáiste

Ni fheicfidh sí arís an drúcht ar an bhféar
Nó an sneachta i ngleannta Mhaamtrasna
Gan ghrian ar a h-aghaidh, gan ceol binn na n-éan
Ach an chré fuar i gCrucán na bPáiste

Chorus:
In ainm an Athair is in ainm an Mhic
Is a Mháithrín atá lán de ghrásta;
In ainm an Spioraid Naomh ná fág me beo
Is mo mháinlín i gCrucán bPáiste

Is buartha na sléibhte, is tá mairg ar an Mask
Is olc mise gan i bheith sábháilte;
Is an fhad a bhéas mé beo ní sheasfaidh mé ar fhód
Na hÉireann nó i gCrucán na bPáiste.

Repeat chorus:

Broken my heart, lonely my life
With my darling child lying here and me tormented
It is the end of my world, my little red-haired girl
Laid out in Crucán na bPáiste

She will not see again the dew on the grass
Nor the snow in the glens of Maamtrasna
No sun on her face, no sweet song of the birds
Only the cold earth of Crucán na bPáiste

Chorus:
In the name of the Father and in the name of the Son
And Mother Mary full of grace;
In the name of the Holy Spirit, don’t leave me alive
With my little angel in Crucán na bPáiste

There is sadness on the mountains, anger on the Mask
But much worse am I that didn’t save her
And for the time I am alive never more will I stand
In Ireland or in Crucán na bPáiste.
Repeat Chorus

'the burial place of the children' - lies on a hilltop in Maamtrasna, Co.Mayo, overlooking Lough Nafooey, and Lough Mask in Ireland. The song was written by Brendan Graham for one of the characters in his new novel "The Brightest Day, The Darkest Night" published by Harper Collins.
