01 Mar 05 - 12:02 PM (#1423940) Subject: RE: Origins: AMHRÁIN NA FÉIDEARTHACHTA From: GUEST,Julia Sorry- I got it from the lyric database with no attribution or info here it is AMHRÁIN NA FÉIDEARTHACHTA. A mhaighdean rua na rónta, A shaighead i gcroithe na bhfear, Tá lasair ár dteampaill fónta Is tá ré an mheirligh thart. tá tine na rímhná lasta, Tá ár n-aisling ag teacht go saol, Tá amhráin na féidearthachta á gcasadh Go binn ó chuar do bhéil. Tá gloithe ar na déithe, Na naoimh is na saoithe ceoil, Bíonn mo chroí go híondúil téite Ia tá fis ár sinsear beo. Is é mo ghuí go gcreidfear iadsan -a mhaireanns de réir an dlí- go bhfeictear ríocht na gceart ar thalamh is go dtuigtear bun gach brí. Is é mo ghuí go gcreidfear iadsan -a mhaireanns de réir an dlí- go bhfeictear ríocht na gceart ar thalamh is go dtuigtear bun gach brí. Translation SONGS OF POSSIBILITY Red haired virgin of the seals, Arrow in the hearts of men, The spark of our temple is rekindled And the robber's rule has ended. Our kinswoman's flame is burning, Our dream is being fulfilled, And songs of possibility Are chanted sweetly from your mouth. Gods have been invoked, Saints and master-musicians, My heart is constantly aglow That our ancestors' vision lives. I pray that they will be believed -those that live by the law- that the kingdom of good will be seen on earth and the base of all meaning understood. I pray that they will be believed -those that live by the law- that the kingdom of good will be seen on earth and the base of all meaning understood |
