Cuimnich grá,
we, we were the feathers-
The feathers of the wings
That glide on the sea.
Gléidh noidyn dlúth,
We were the song
The song of the bird that sailed high and free.
CH:
Will you take me o'er the boundless sea,
When our flock flew high to fell the shark?
Will you take me o'er sweet memory-
An' we were under the angel's wing,
An' we were the crew of the hawk.
Cuimnich grá,
We, we were the guilty-
For the black sin of freedom truly being.
Gléidh noidyn dlúth, we were the crime;
With angel's blood from your hands still streaming.
CH:
Will you take me o'er the boundless sea,
When our flock flew high to fell the shark?
Will you take me o'er sweet memory-
An' we were under the angel's wing,
An' we were the crew of the hawk.
Cuimnich oc lode
Grá merriu
Gléidh anam ad mian currit mow
Noidyn foshlit! Cumwade fearg Ri na ugve
Dlúth nyn shallid.
CH:
Will you take me o'er the boundless sea,
When our flock flew high to fell the shark?
Will you take me o'er sweet memory-
An' we were under the angel's wing,
An' we were the crew of the hawk.
Cuimnich grá,
We, we were the captured-
Imprisoned by our own greed and fearful hearts.
Gléidh noidyn dlúth,
We were the wronged.
Our troupe, without a leader, was falling apart.
CH:
Will you take me o'er the boundless sea,
When our flock flew high to fell the shark?
Will you take me o'er sweet memory-
An' we were under the angel's wing,
An' we were the crew of the hawk.
