Lyrics

'Sé mo laoch, mo Ghile Mear

'Sé mo Chaesar, Ghile Mear

Suan ná séan ní bhfuaireas féin

Ó chuaigh I gcéin mo Ghile Mear

'Sé mo laoch, mo Ghile Mear

'Sé mo Chaesar, Ghile Mear

Suan ná séan ní bhfuaireas féin

Ó chuaigh I gcéin mo Ghile Mear

Grief and pain are all I know

My heart is sore

My tears a'flow

We saw him go ???

No word we know of him ???

'Sé mo laoch, mo Ghile Mear

'Sé mo Chaesar, Ghile Mear

Suan ná séan ní bhfuaireas féin

Ó chuaigh I gcéin mo Ghile Mear

A proud and gallant chevalier

A high man's scion of gentle mien

A fiery blade engaged to reap

He'd break the bravest in the field

'Sé mo laoch, mo Ghile Mear

'Sé mo Chaesar, Ghile Mear

Suan ná séan ní bhfuaireas féin

Ó chuaigh I gcéin mo Ghile Mear

Come sing his praise as sweet harps play

And proudly toast his noble frame

With spirit and with mind aflame

So wish him strength and length of days

'Sé mo laoch, mo Ghile Mear

'Sé mo Chaesar, Ghile Mear

Suan ná séan ní bhfuaireas féin

Ó chuaigh I gcéin mo Ghile Mear

'Sé mo laoch, mo Ghile Mear

'Sé mo Chaesar, Ghile Mear

Suan ná séan ní bhfuaireas féin

Ó chuaigh I gcéin mo Ghile Mear
