Rí Na Cruinne
rí­ na cruinne
tá na daoine ag milleadh
an chine daonna
ní­l muid cúramach go leor

(a) rí­ na cruinne
ta'n dulra scriosadh
ó bhliain go bliain
ní­l muid faichilleach go leor

múscal ár misneadh
frí­d an domhain
múscal ár misneadh
trid an domhan
múscal ár misneadh
trid an domhan mhor

Anam
when will i see
an end to destruction and woe
and how will i see
no division in my life

there comes a time to make amends
never too late to try again
to save our soul

when will i see an end
to the famine and war
and when will i say
there's no solution no more

there comes a time to make amends
never too late to try again
to save our soul

all that i see
is soul destroying, greed
when will i say
there's a solution to meet

there comes a time to make amends
never too late to try again
to save our soul

In Fortune's Hand
tell me what you please
this place is a squeeze
your guess is as good as mine
sell me other dreams, oh! the summer's here
you know we're going down the line
you know we're going down the line

taking all the pieces in the situation
hoping we can work it out
with fate on your side, luck and some pride
you are on the right line
it'll be a sure sign

in fortune's hand
where do we stand?
in fortune's hand

there isn't a nobel or a humble person
who isn't up or down a while
throw caution to the wind
leave your cares behind
you know we're going down the line
you know we're going down the line

tell me what you please
this place is a squeeze
your guess is as good as mine
sell me other dreams, oh! the summer's here
you know we're going down the line
you know we're going down the line

in fortune's hand
where do we stand?
in fortune's hand

The Poison Glen
way up there in the poison glen
the sun's going down on the misty mountain
and I'm watching
and wondering
feeling something from long ago

haunted echo that surrounds the glen
the heather creeping through
the burned out ruins
and I'm watching
and wondering
feeling spirits of long ago

who in the valley shed the poison tear?
no one knows
an old legend of a mythical hero
and I'm watching
and wondering
feeling something from long ago

may this vale be my silver lining
pleasing nature with a heart's desire
the burned out ruins
and I'm watching
and wondering
feeling everything from long ago

Why Worry?
why must I worry
try not hurry like other people
why must I worry
'cos you know yourself
that is not the way

who am I to tell you lies
and then say I didn't mean it at all
you see me, you hear me
but you don't know what I'm saying
you feel it, you take it
in your stride

why must I worry
try not hurry like other people
why must I worry
'cos you know yourself
that is not the way

when you call me
and talk about the yesterdays
it cheers me, it steers me
to follow better reason
to feel it, to take it in our stride

why must I worry
try not hurry like other people
why must I worry
'cos you know yourself
that is not the way

why worry, why worry
try not to hurry, try not to hurry
why must I worry
'cos you know yourself
that is not my way

Úirchill an Chreagáin
ag úirchill a' chreagáin sea chodail mise 'réir faoi bhrón
is le héirí­ na maid'ne tháinig ainnir fá mo dhéin le póig
bhí­ grí­osghrua garth' aici 'gus loinhir ina ciabh mar ór
's ba é í­ochshláinte 'n domhain a bheith amharc ar a' rí­oghan oig

a fhiafhir charthanaigh, ná caitear thusa 'néalta
ach éirigh go tapaidh agus aistrigh liom siar sa ród
go tí­r dheas na meala nach bhfuair galla intí­ réim go fóill
's gheobhair aoibhneas ar hallaí­ 'mo mhealladhsa le siamsa ceoil

a rí­oghan is deise 'n tú hélen fa'r treaghdadh slóigh
no dó na naoi mná deasa, pharnassus thú 'bhí­ déanta gcló?
cé'n tí­r ins a'chruinne 'n ar hoileadh tú, a réalt gan cheo
le'r mian leat mo shamhrhailsa bheith 'cogarnaigh leat siar sa ród?

Love and Affection
you play games in the street
who to trust and who to meet
sweet justice hard to find
say the same with deceit
take no blame in defeat
sweet justice hard to find

all I wanted was love and affection
all I wanted was love and affection

lonely child roams around
as someone else goes underground
all trying to make ends meet
trouble staring, is life so cheap?

all they wanted was love and affection
all they wanted was love and affection

broken dreams in the street
true sensations, the stories leak
sweet justice hard to find
can't simply speak my mind

all I wanted was love and affection
all they wanted was love and affection
all I wanted was love and affection
all they wanted was love and affection

You're the One
when the cold wind blows
and the rain keeps tumbling down
and there's no one there
when the morning light shines on

you're the one to lend a hand
you're the one who understands
you're the one to comfort me
the keeper of my heart

the moments we share
will never fade away
all the treasure and gold
wouldn't make me change anyway

you're the one to lend a hand
you're the one who understands
you're the one to comfort me
the keeper of my heart

this heart of mine
might change as the seasons run by
like a small stream
that turns and runs to the sea
