| Lyrics: | Oiche chiuin, oiche Mhic De,
Cach 'na suan dis araon.
Dis is dilse 'faire le speis
Naion
beag, leanbh ceansa 'gus caomh.
Criost, 'na chodladh go samh.
Criost, 'na chodladh go
samh.
Oiche chiuin, oiche Mhic De,
Aoiri ar dtus chuala 'n sceal.
Alleluia aingeal
ag glaoch.
Cantain suairc i ngar is i gcein.
Criost an Slanaitheoir Fein.
Criost an
Slanaitheoir Fein.
[Translation]
Silent night, night of God's son,
Everyone is
asleep, the pair together.
The most faithful pair, watching with hope
A little baby, a mild
and gentle child.
Christ, calmly asleep.
Christ, calmly asleep.
Silent night,
night of God's son,
Shepherds were first to hear the tale.
The angels crying out
Alleluia.
Lovely chanting near and far.
Christ, the saviour himself.
Christ, the
saviour himself. |
