Béal Tuinne Bealtaine na Maighdine

Bláthanna Bealtaine Chughat A Bhanríon / The Flowers of May to You O Queen
“Réalt na bhFhlaitheas
Tú is fonn linn
Séirse ceoil ó lúib na coille
Grastaí uait
Teacht 'na dtuile
Scéimh na ngrást
Ar ghleann is ar chluainín
Nuair a dhamhsann ann an t-uanín.
Dathanna molta Muire Máthar
Dhein an nádúr duit a sholathar
Fuiseóg foinn bhinn
Binneas cuaiche
Laetha gréíne
Síolta is luaithe
Bláthanna Bealtaine chughat a Bhanríon
Réalt na bhFhlaitheas
Tú is fonn linn!”

The Flowers of May to You O Queen
“Star of Heaven
It is you that we long for
An onrush of music from the woodland glade
Graces from you
Coming in a flood
The loveliness of graces
On glen and on meadow
When the little lamb dances there.
The colours to praise Mary our Mother
It was nature that provided it for you
The lark of the sweet note
The sweet voiced cuckoo
Days of sunshine
Seeds that are earliest
The flowers of May to you o Queen
Star of Heaven
It is you that we long for!”
