Locations
Ná go siar mar is fearr ar Bhá Scé.
Do not go back as it is best on Sce Bay..
D'fhás mé caol lár ceant.
I grew up in the city centre.
Chaith mé mo shaol léi gur ó bhí mé dhá bhliain déag.
I spent my life with her since I was twelve years old.
Is iomaí farraige a chá síúil a fheiceann mé.
I see many seas that your foot has walked.
Ag tnáil siar ina dhéagaí aniar ar bhá scé.
Leaning back in his teens, coming from the bay of stories...
Tairg buí as an oíche le dhul ar obair lae.
Offer yellow from the night to go to day work.
Tal is te le cailleadh éigin a dhéanamh is é
It is too hot to do anything at all.
Tá na céadta séimh á mhealladh air.
Hundreds of lenitions are being attracted to it.
A thú i mbaol na ré.
Oh, you in danger of the era...
Ní amhlaidh a bhí an chaoi ar oileán in SCÉ.
That was not the case on the island in SCÉ.
Tá gliomaigh foinn is do pógaí ag fanacht liom go fóill.
There are melodies of lobsters and your kisses still waiting for me.
Tá flúirseach troisc i lag go toir is meangaí mbéal léinn.
There is an abundance of cod in the bay to the east and smiles on the mouths of scholars.
Ach ní sheol mise chaoi aríst ar bhá.
But I did not send a way again on the bay..
