Lyrics:
Insa stábla tá an leanbh Íosa,
Is ina seasamh taobh leis tá na ríthe,
Rí an Domhain a tháinig chun ár saoire,
Tá an leanbh Íosa ina chodhladh sínte.
Bó is caora is asal ina thimpeall,
Labhrann aingil os a chionn go líofa,
Canann Muire go socair binn os íseal,
Ó a leanbh Íosa, ó a leanbh Íosa.
Translation:
In the stable is the child Jesus,
Standing next to him are the kings,
The King of the World who came to save us,
The child Jesus is lying asleep.
A cow and a sheep and a donkey are around him,
The angels speak fluently above him,
Mary sings gently sweetly quietly,
Oh my child Jesus, oh my child Jesus.
