Anybody out there know the Gaelic lyrics for this amazing song by Liam o Maonlai of the Hot House Flowers? I heard it on a cd called Common Ground.

Cathain

Cúrfá
Cathain a thiocfaidh tú abhaile chugam
Ó cathain a dtagfaimid muid le chéile arís
Cathain a thoicfaidh tú abhaile chugam
Fanfaidh mé ar an lá agus fanfaidh mé go dílis

Braithim go bhfuil tú in easnamh orm
Ó braithim uait mé braithim tú i bhfad
Braithim go bhfuil tú in easnamh orm
'S neadar cathain a bhlaisfidh mé do bheoladh arís

Cúrfá

Tá'n spéir fós ós mo chion, an talamh céanna fúm,
Na sléibhte i mo thimpeal mar a bhí siad a riamh
Tá'n taoide ag lionadh 's ag trá mar a bhíonn
Ach ní ach ar leath shiúl 'tá mé gan tusa le mo thaobh

Cúrfá

Feiceann mé do shúile i mo bhrionglóidí
Cloiseann mé do gháire agus mé í mo luí
Feiceann mé an bóthar ó mo fhuinneog ins an tigh
An bóthar úd a thóg tú gan mise le do thaobh.

Cúrfá

When

Chorus
When will you come home to me?
When will we be together again?
When will you come home to me?
I'll wait for that day and I'll stay loyal.

I feel your absence,
I feel you far away,
I feel that we're apart,
And I wonder when I'll taste your lips again.

Chorus

The sky's still up above, the same ground underneath,
the mountains around me are as they ever were,
the tide is rising and retreating as it does,
and I'm only seeing through half an eye since you left my side.

Chorus

I see your eyes in my dreams.
I hear your laughter where I'm laid.
I see the road from the window in my house.
The road you took without me by your side.

Chorus
