Gearrthóg Físe
Lyrics
We three kings of orient are
– Táimid trí ríthe an oirthir
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
– Bronntanais imthacaí trasnaímid i gcéin
Field and fountain
– Réimse agus tobair
Moor and mountain
– Moor agus sliabh
Following yonder star
– Tar éis réalta thall
O star of wonder, star of night
– Star of wonder, réalta na hoíche
Star with royal beauty bright
– Réalta le áilleacht ríoga geal
Westward leading, still proceeding
– Siar chun tosaigh, fós ag dul ar aghaidh
Guide us to thy perfect light
– Treoraigh sinn chuig do sholas foirfe
Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain
– Rugadh Rí Ar mhachaire Bheithil
Gold I bring to crown Him again
– Óir tugaim chun coróin Arís É
King for ever, ceasing never
– Rí go deo, gan scor riamh
Over us all to reign
– Thar linn go léir a reign
O star of wonder, star of night
– Star of wonder, réalta na hoíche
Star with royal beauty bright
– Réalta le áilleacht ríoga geal
Westward leading, still proceeding
– Siar chun tosaigh, fós ag dul ar aghaidh
Guide us to thy perfect light
– Treoraigh sinn chuig do sholas foirfe
Frankincense to offer have I
– Frankincense a thairiscint dom
Incense owns a Deity nigh
– Tá Deity nigh ag Incense
Prayer and praising, all men raising
– Urnaí agus moladh, gach fear ag ardú
Worship Him, God most high
– Adhradh Dó, A Dhia is airde
O star of wonder, star of night
– Star of wonder, réalta na hoíche
Star with royal beauty bright
– Réalta le áilleacht ríoga geal
Westward leading, still proceeding
– Siar chun tosaigh, fós ag dul ar aghaidh
Guide us to thy perfect light
– Treoraigh sinn chuig do sholas foirfe
Myrrh is mine
– Myrrh is mine
Its bitter perfume breathes
– Breathes a chumhrán searbh
A life of gathering gloom
– Saol ag bailiú gruama
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
– Brón, osna, fuiliú, bás
Sealed in the stone cold tomb
– Séalaithe sa tuama fuar cloiche
O star of wonder, star of night
– Star of wonder, réalta na hoíche
Star with royal beauty bright
– Réalta le áilleacht ríoga geal
Westward leading, still proceeding
– Siar chun tosaigh, fós ag dul ar aghaidh
Guide us to thy perfect light
– Treoraigh sinn chuig do sholas foirfe
Glorious now behold Him arise
– Glórmhar anois féuch dó éirí
King and God and Sacrifice!
– Rí Agus Dia agus Íobairt!
Al-le-lu-ia, al-le-lu-ia
– Al-le-lu-ia, al-le-lu-ia
Heaven to earth replies
– Freagraíonn neamh go talamh
O star of wonder, star of night
– Star of wonder, réalta na hoíche
Star with royal beauty bright
– Réalta le áilleacht ríoga geal
Westward leading, still proceeding
– Siar chun tosaigh, fós ag dul ar aghaidh
Guide us to thy perfect light
– Treoraigh sinn chuig do sholas foirfe
