Lullaby for the Dead - The Chieftains, Ry Cooder, Maire Brennan

Like the sun quenched its first dawning

The moon lost to the sea

Like the dew lost unto the morning

So you, my love, were lost to me

I can hear now the pipers calling

On that far distant shore

And my tears now like leaves are falling

And I will see your face no more

You are sleeping, you are sleeping

Oh, no sleep or peace can comfort me

I am weeping, oh, I am weeping

'Til I will sleep in sleep with thee

You are sleeping, you are sleeping

Oh, no sleep or peace can comfort me

I am weeping, oh, I am weeping

'Til I will sleep in sleep with thee

Seoithín seo hó, seoithín seó

Seoithín seo, seoithín ó

Seoithín seo hó, ó seoithín seó

'Til I will sleep in sleep with thee
