Life – so weak and brittle Life – so fragile Life's too bright and clear to fear the day – the morn End the sleep – awake! End the mourning The end is just a gate In Tir Na n'Og we'll rise Life – so pure and shining Life – so sacred Life's too frail and mellow to praise the dark – to moum Awake from all your fears Awake from weakness awake – just a first rite In Tir Na n'Og we'll shine
Just to guide you home I've come for you Upon the fields of blood I hear your cries Your last breath I'll take to save your light
I welcome you beyond – on the other side Just to guide you home I've come for you Upon the fields of blood I hear your cries Your last breath I'll take to save your light I welcome you beyond – in the hall of souls
