lyrics

Seeds sowing
Love growing
My darling
Under your toes

Be patient
rain’s falling
hope’s blooming
through your sorrow

مرجوحة ع غصنك
A swing dangling from you branch
حدِّك حلوات تحيِّك
Beautiful women are sewing around you
قصاية حب بفيِّك
A love story in your shade

خطوات صغيرة بتكبَر
Tiny steps become bigger

لما الضحكات بتكتر
When there are more laughs

لما سمانا بتمطر، وتحل البركات
When our skies rain on us with blessings
يا سجرة الدار اكبري فينا
O tree, grow inside of us

ويا حلوة مهما صار حني علينا
And beauty, whatever happens be kinds to us

Seeds sowing
Love growing
My darling
Under your toes

Be patient
rain’s falling
hope’s blooming
through your sorrow

Tóg coiscéim beag go corp an chrainn
Take small steps to the trunk of the tree

Siúl socair, sála lom
Walk steady, barefoot

Be patient

Nó géill do ghlór lies on ghaoth
Or release your voice to the wind

chan ard is scapfaidh sé
Sing loud and it will spread

mar duilleoga an fómhair
Like the leaves of Autumn

nó bígí cúin
Or be quiet

meall síocháin chugat
Entice peace towards you

in am ‘s i dtráth
This too shall pass

Níl tuile dá mhéad Bach dtránn
There is no flood so great that it won’t dry

Warmth of the land
strength of the sea
grow as far as the eye can see
entice me with your earthly dance
with that trance

Oh woman,
wonder woman
not the televised
but the vilified
the one that makes you wonder
how strong can the human be
how much can the spirit take
before it breaks
warmth of the land
strength of the sea
grow as far as our hearts can see

Seeds sowing
Love growing
My darling
Under your toes

Be patient
rain’s falling
hope’s blooming
through your sorrow
