  1. Close Your Eyes (Dún do Shúil)

From the recording Celtic Fairy Dream

Share

This traditional Irish lullaby can be found in The Forde Collection (Old Irish Folk Music and Songs, P.W. Joyce, 1909) in the Dublin Traditional Music Archives

Lyrics

Dún do shúile a rún mo chroí
A chuid den tsaol is a ghrá liom.
Dún do shúile a rún mo chroí
Agus gheobhair féirín amárach.

Tá do dheaid ag teacht gan mhoill ón chnoc
Agus cearca fraoich ar lámh leis.
Agus codlaigh go ciúin ‘do luí sa choid
Agus gheobhair féirín amárach.

Tá an Samhradh ag teacht le grian is le teas
Agus duilliúr ghlas ar phrátaí
Tá an ghaoth ag teacht go fial aneas
Agus gheobhaimid iasc amárach.
