Oíche Chiún
Oíche chiúin, oíche Mhic Dé,
Cách 'na suan dís araon,
Dís is dílse 'faire le spéis
Naoín beag gnaoigheal
ceananntais caomh
Críost, 'na chodhladh go séimh.
Críost, 'na chodhladh go séimh.
Oíche chiúin, oíche Mhic Dé,
Aoirí ar dtús chuala 'n scéal;
Allelúia aingeal ag glaoch.
Cantain suairc i ngar is i gcéin
Críost an Slánaitheoir Féin
Críost an Slánaitheoir Féin
(Translation:
Silent Night
---------------
Silent night, night of God's son.
Soundly in slumber, the pair together
The pair and love, watching with affection
The small bright beautiful child,
darling little one.
Christ, calmly asleep.
Christ, calmly asleep.
Silent night, night of God's son.
Shepherds first heard the tale
The angels crying out Alleluia.
Lovely chanting near and far.
Christ, the saviour himself.
Christ, the saviour himself.)
