Dear Chris,

Below are the Irish and English lyrics to a song by the group Kíla from their CD Tóg Go Bog É. I hope this helps out with your cert.

Ón Taobh Tuathail Amach / From the Inside Out
(copyright Rónán Ó Snodaigh)

Ná bí ag troid liom anois
No ní do namhaid mé
Ná bí ag troid liom anois
Tuigfidh tú sa deireadh thiar thall nach do namhaid mé

Ón taobh tuathail amach
Ní mhaith liom triod arís
Ón taobh tuathail amach

Mar throid mé liom féin
Throid mé le Dé
Throid mé le mo shaol agus throid mé léi
Throid mé le mo chéile
Throid mé é
Throid mé chomh minic sin gur chuir mé eagla orm féin

Ná cur ag troid mé arís
Ní chun na leasa é
Ná cur ag troid mé arís
Níl aon fonn orm an t-anam atá agam
A chuir amú i mo shaol

Coinnigí an síochán
Agus déanfaidh muidne fás i ngach aon slí
Coinnigí an síochán
Tá dóthain de déanamh cheana féin
Coinnigí an síochán
Tá athrú ar an domhain amuigh le déanaí
Coinnigí an síochán
Sar a ghlacann tú an dara chéim


Don't fight with me just now
I'm not your enemy
Don't fight with me just now
In the end you'll understand
That I am not your enemy

From the inside out
I don't want to fight again
From the inside out

I have fought with myself
Fought with God
Fought with my life
Fought with herself
Fought with my senses
Fought with himself
Fought so often
That I frightened myself

Don't make me fight again
It does me no good
Don't make me fight again
I don't want to misguide my soul
Through this life

Keep the peace
And we'll grow in every other way
Keep the peace
There's plenty else to do as it is
Keep the peace
The world outside has been changing lately
Keep the peace
Before you take the second step
