Tá gaotha an gheimhridh sgallta fuar,
Thart thimchioll an Drom'-mhóir,
Ach ann sna halla tá siothchán,
A pháiste gheal a stóir.
Ta gach sean-duilleog dul air crith,
ach is og an beannglan thú
Seinimis lothin lú ló lan
Seinim loithin lú ló
Nár thig aon droch-rud idir mé's
mo naoidheanán gan bhrón,
Nar thig aon tais ó'n Abhainn Mhóir
na Bean-sidhe Chloinne Eoghain,
á Muire Máthair ós ár g-cionn
ag iarradh grása duinn
Seinimis lothin lú ló lan
Seinim loithin lú ló
A Róis mo chroídhe, a Slaithín ur
a's gharrha an Drom'-mhóir,
Bí ag fás go mbeídh gach cleite beag,
mar sgiathán iolair mhóir,
Agus léim ann sin air fad an t-saoghail,
oibrigh a's saothraigh clú
Seinimis lothin lú ló lan
Seinim loithin lú ló
(The October winds lament
Around the castle of Dromore
Yet peace is in her lofty halls
Oh, my loving treasure,
Though autumn vines may droop and die
A bud of spring are you
Sing hushabye low, lah, loo, lo lan
Sing hushabye low, lah loo
Bring no ill wind to hinder us
My helpless babe and me
Dread spirit of the Blackwater
Clan Eoan's wild banshee
And holy Mary pitying us in heaven
For grace doth sue
Sing hushabye low, lah, loo, lo lan
Sing hushabye low, lah loo
Take time to thrive my ray of hope
In the garden of Dromore
Take heed young eaglet till your wings
Are feathered fit to soar
A little rest and then our land
Is full of things to do
Sing hushabye low, lah, loo, lo lan
Sing hushabye low, lah loo)
