Suantrai Meisciuil (Whiskey Lullabies)

(Gaelic)
[Verse 1]
Nuair a bhi me og
Chuir sia ceist orm
Cen ait ar ghortaigh me mo fein
Ghlan siad na deortha beaga
Ar m'eadan phog siad
Shil siad go raibh me I gceart
Nuair a eirim nios sinne bionn na
Hoicheannta nios giorra
Nior mhiste dom cen ait a bhfuil an bpian

[Chorus]
Is ni chluinim ach
Suantrai Meisciuil
Chun me a chuir na lui san oich
Is ni chluinim ach
Suantrai Meisciuil
Chun me a chuir na lui san oich

[Verse 2]
Tagann biseach orm
Ach ni bhionn m'intinn glan den
Buaradh buan, bim ciaptha go foill
Is Deacair rud a choirriu
Muna bhfuil se briste
Bim a foghlaim achan la
Ach Eirim nios sine
Is na hoicheannta nios giorra
Ag steachhailt chun marachtail len bpian

[Chorus]
Is ni chluinim ach
Suantrai Meisciuil
Chun me a chuir na lui san oich
Is ni chluinim ach
Suantrai Meisciuil
Chun me a chuir na lui san oich

[Bridge]
Ortionn bhur bhfocail 's bhur maslai I
Mo chroi me
Gearrann siad, Gearrfidh siad I gconai
Cuidigh liom, Grasta De
Cuidigh liom, Grasta De
Bim ag gui, tabhair comhra domh
Cuidigh liom, Grasta De

[Chorus]
Is ni chluinim ach
Suantrai Meisciuil
Chun me a chuir na lui san oich
Is ni chluinim ach
Suantrai Meisciuil
Chun me a chuir na lui san oich

[Outro]
Gortionn bhur bhfocail 's bhur maslai I
Mo chroi me
Gearrann siad, Gearrfidh siad I gconai
Gortionn bhur bhfocail 's bhur maslai I
Mo chroi me
Gearrann siad, Gearrfidh siad I gconai

[Verse 1]
When I was a child
They'd ask me where it hurt
And wipe the tears from my eyes
Sure embraces
Gentle forehead kisses
Making sure that I was alright
As I grew older and the nights grew shorter
I no longer cared where it hurt

[Chorus]
All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
There to cradle me to sleep
All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
There to cradle me to sleep

[Verse 2]
Scars they heal in time
The raw wounds on my mind
They aren't so easily fixed
You can't mend what isn't broken
Kind words are rarely spoken
In time I will learn this
But I grow older
And the nights grow shorter
Drowning as I sink or swim

[Chorus]
All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
There to cradle me to sleep
All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
There to cradle me to sleep

[Bridge]
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
Words they cut they will always hurt me
Please be my saving Grace
Please be my saving Grace
How to answer all my prayers
Please be my saving Grace

[Chorus]
All I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
There to cradle me to sleep
And all I hear is, Whisky Lullabies
There to cradle me to sleep

[Outro]
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
Words they cut, they will always hurt me
Sticks and stones they break me to the bone
Words they cut, they will always hurt me
