Mo Ghile Mear

Seal da rabhas im’ mhaighdean shéimh,

’s anois im’ bhaintreach chaite thréith,

Mo chéile ag treabhadh na dtonn go tréan

De bharr na gcnoc is I n-imigcéin.

’sé mo laoch, mo ghile mear,

’sé mo chaesar, ghile mear,

Suan na séan ni bhfuaireas féin

Ó chuaigh I gcéin mo ghile mear.

Bimse buan ar buaidhirt gach ló,

Ag caoi go cruaidh ’s ag tuar na ndeór

Mar scaoileadh uaim an buachaill beó

’s na riomhtar tuairisc uaidh, mo bhrón.

Ni labhrann cuach go suairc ar nóin

Is nil guth gadhair I gcoillte cnó,

Na maidin shamhraidh I gcleanntaibh ceoigh

Ó d’imthigh uaim an buachaill beó.

Marcach uasal uaibhreach óg,

Gas gan gruaim is suairce snódh,

Glac is luaimneach, luath I ngleo

Ag teascadh an tslua ’s ag tuargain treon.

Seinntear stair ar chlairsigh cheoil

’s liontair tainte cart ar bord

Le hinntinn ard gan chaim, gan cheó

chun saoghal is slainte d’ fhaghail dom leómhan.

Ghile mear ’sa seal faoi chumha,

’s eire go léir faoi chlócaibh dubha;

Suan na séan ni bhfuaireas féin

Ó luaidh I gcéin mo ghile mear.

When i am old, and my eyes grow dim
i hope that i will have seen
enough of the world to say
I have truly Lived.

When i am old, and my heart grows weak
i hope that i will have experianced
enough joy, laughter, love and hope to say
I have truly Lived.

When i am old, and my mind grows feeble
i hope i will have gained
more wisdom than the wisest man, and say
I have truly Lived

When i am old, and my body fails
i hope i will have given
people reason to say
We were glad that you Lived.

Must be a male thing, and wishing we could all live in a repeating groundhogs day to win the hearts and minds of women we dream about :lol: .

The eerily deserted London sequence from 28 Days Later

reminds me of the opening sequence of Omega Man, with Charlton Heston.

Its not the words ya need to listen to, but the actual music itself. It is the song that describes madame butterflys dreams that capt pinkerton will some day return.. This is an english translation of the lyircs, anyway.

One good day, we will see
Arising a strand of smoke
Over the far horizon on the sea
And then the ship appears
And then the ship is white
It enters into the port, it rumbles its salute.

Do you see it? He is coming!
I don’t go down to meet him, not I.
I stay upon the edge of the hill
And I wait a long time
but I do not grow weary of the long wait.

And leaving from the crowded city,
A man, a little speck
Climbing the hill.
Who is it? Who is it?
And as he arrives
What will he say? What will he say?
He will call Butterfly from the distance
I without answering
Stay hidden
A little to tease him,
A little as to not die.
At the first meeting,
And then a little troubled
He will call, he will call
“Little one, dear wife
Blossom of orange”
The names he called me at his last coming.
All this will happen,
I promise you this
Hold back your fears –
I with secure faith wait for him.
