O hätt' ich so viel Lieder, Als Wellen du, mein Meer! Ich [schriebe]1 sie [dir]2 nieder, Und brächte sie dir her. Mein ganzes Fühlen, Denken, Ja, all mein [irdnes]3 Sein, [Ich wollt's in dich]4 versenken, Du mein [kristallener]5 Schrein, Du meiner Augen Weide, Du meines Hierseins Glück, Früh meine erste Freude Und nachts mein letzter Blick.

Dá mbeadh lia amhrán im sheilbh, Agus atá tonnta, is tusa mo mhuir! Shnoífinn iad ar do dheilbh, Agus thabharfainn duit iad go léir. Mo smaointe uile, mo mhianta, Is ea, gach rud ins mo chroí, Cuirim go domhain iad ionatsa, As tobar mo ghrá a fhásann scrín. Féile na súl í do bheith, Bealach an aoibhnis é m’ádh Ar éirí dom mo bhriathra faoi rath, Roimh chodladh dom rosc deiridh faoi bhláth.
