Llueve sobre el río

Language: Spanish (Español)

Our translations: IRI

Llueve sobre el río.
El agua estremece
los fragrantes juncos
de la orilla verde.
¡Ay! qué ansioso olor
a pétalo frío.

Llueve sobre el río.
Mi barca parece mi sueño
en un vago mundo.
Orilla verde,
¡Ay!, barca sin junco.
¡Ay! Corazón frío.
Llueve sobre el río.

Báisteach ag titim san abhainn

Language: Irish (Gaelic) after the Spanish (Español)

Báisteach ag titim san abhainn . . .
Is tá an luachair chumhra
Corraithe ag an uisce
Ar an mbruach glas féarmhar.
Á, tá b’ladh na corrabhuaise
Ó na peitil fhuara!
Báisteach ag titim san abhainn . . .

Mo bháidín ba dhóigh leat
Mar bhrionglóid, i ndomhan ceomhar
Smúite. An bruach glas féarmhar!
Á, báidín ar fuaidreamh
Á, fuarchroí fann!
Báisteach ag titim san abhainn …
