Not sure about Clannad's possibly Donegal version, but this is a Connemara version, taken from 'Cas Amhrán', edited by Mícheál Ó hEidhin -

(Curfá - chorus) Dilín ó deamhas, ó deamhas,
Dilín ó deamhas ó dí;
Dilín ó deamhas, ó deamhas, ó,
Dilín ó deamhas ó dí.

Cuirfead mo rún chun suain,
Cuirfead mo rún 'na luí;
Cuirfead mo rún chun suain go ciúin,
Le dilín ó deamhas ó dí.

Curfá

'S buachaill maith súiste, súist',
Is buachaill maih súist' é Páid;
Is buachaill maith súiste, súiste, súist',
'S is cailín deas tuirn' í Cáit.

Curfá

Is buachaill aniar, aniar,
Is buachaill aniar an fear;
Is buachaill aniar, aniar, aniar,
'S is cailín ón sliabh an bhean.

Curfá

Caithimis suas is suas é,
Caithimis suas an páiste;
Caithimis suas is suas is suas ,
'S tiocfaidh sé anuas amárach.

Curfá

Hope it may help.

Lhiats,

Bobby Bob

Dear Matthias,

Here are the lyrics that Clannad sings to the song. And a big thanks to Bobby Bob for giving us the Connemara version.

'dTigeas a damhsa damhsa, 'dTigeas a damhsa domh?
'dTigeas a damhsa damhsa damhsa, 'dTigeas a damhsa domh?

Goirm i gcónaí gcónai, goirm i gcónaí domh,
Goirm i gcónaí 'gcónaí 'gcónaí, maidin Dé Luain a b'fhearr.

'dTigeas a damhsa damhsa, 'dTigeas a damhsa domh?
'dTigeas a damhsa damhsa damhsa, 'dTigeas a damhsa domh?

Buachaill aniar aniar, buachaill aniar a b'fhearr,
Buachaill aniar aniar aniar, is cailín ó Shliabh na bPeann.

'dTigeas a damhsa damhsa, 'dTigeas a damhsa domh?
'dTigeas a damhsa damhsa damhsa, 'dTigeas a damhsa domh?

Buachaill maith súiste súiste, buachaill maith súiste a b'fhearr,
Buachaill maith súiste súiste súiste súiste is cailín deas túirne leann.

'dTigeas a damhsa damhsa, 'dTigeas a damhsa domh?
'dTigeas a damhsa damhsa damhsa, 'dTigeas a damhsa domh?
