Close your eyes, my love, my own
My precious child, mo stóirín
Dún do shúil, a rún mo chroí
Is gheobhair feirín amárach
The summer's come with warmth and Sun
The grainy leaves are growing
Softly sleep while watch I keep
The breezes gently blowing
Close your eyes, my love, my own
My precious child, mo stóirín
Your father comes across the land
With gifts for you and for me
Ducks and eggs in either hand
And freshest fish from Tra Li
Dún do shúil, a rún mo chroí
A chuid den tsaol, 's a ghrá liom
Dún do shúil, a rún mo chroí
Agus gheobhair feirín amárach
Close your eyes, my love, my own
My precious child, mo stóirín
