CruiscÃn Lán
Let the farmer praise his grounds, let the huntsman praise his hounds
Let the shepherd praise his dewyscented lawn
Oh but I'm more wise than they, spend each happy night and day
With my darlin' little cruiscÃn lán, lán, lán
My darlin' little cruiscÃn lán
Oh, gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn Slainte geal Mauverneen
Oh, graw moh kree moh krooshkeen Slawnta gal MohvoorneenI
Gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn lán, lán, lán
Graw moh kree moh krooshkeen lawn, lawn, lawn
Oh, gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn lán
Oh, graw moh kree moh krooshkeen lawn
Immortal and divine, Great Bacchus, god of wine
Create me by adoption your own son
In hopes that you'll comply that my glass shall ne'er run dry
Nor my darlin' little cruiscÃn lán, lán, lán
My darlin' little cruiscÃn lán
Oh, gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn Slainte geal Mauverneen
Gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn lán, lán, lán
Oh, gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn lán
Oh, when cruel death appears in a few but happy years
You'll say: "Oh, won't you come along with me?"
I'll say: "Begone, you knave, for King Bacchus gave me lave
To take another cruiscÃn lán, lán, lán
To take another cruiscÃn lán"
Oh, gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn Slainte geal Mauverneen
Gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn lán, lán, lán
Oh, gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn lán
Then fill your glasses high, let's not part with lips so dry
For the lark now proclaims it is the dawn
And since we can't remain, may we shortly meet again
To fill another cruiscÃn lán, lán, lán
To fill another cruiscÃn lán
Oh, gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn Slainte geal Mauverneen
Gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn lán, lán, lán
Oh, gradh mo chroide mo cruiscÃn lán
