lyrics

Cuartú saoirse sa hanbháis.
Ag fánaíocht san ólacháin,
m'intinn ag cúrsach.

Glaoch ón ngealach,
agus cuartú an talamh.

Glaoch ón uaigh,
agus cuartú an talamh.

An é ón talamh a soláthraíonn sé,
agus ólaim a neachtar.
Glaoch ón uaigh,
cuardaím anagarr.
Is trial é, an fanacht.

An glaoch ón uaigh,
cuartú an talamh.

Ón talamh a hsoláthraíonn sé,
agus ólaim a neachtar.

Leanaim ar aghaidh ar bhruach na habhann,
na driseacha tuibh agus dealgach.
Ag lámhacán tré'n scrobarnach.
Ag streacadh mo chreacann.

Ón talamh a soláthraíonn sé,
agus ólaim a neachtar.

Cuartú saoirse sa hanbháis.
Ag fánaíocht san ólacháin,
m'intinn ag cúrsach.

Agus ólaim mé a neachtar.
Cloisim glaoch an tsreangán.
Cuirim ar an stil.
An tSeachmallach. Póiteach.

Ólaim mé a neachtar.
Cloisim glaoch an tsreangán.
Cuirim ar an stil.

Éist leis an crá aosta,
i dtuama an dríodar,
an áit a thógaim mo stíl.
Fanaim anseo i mo lusca.
I mo sheasamh ag gáire as mo mheabhair.

Éist leis an crá aosta.
Is físidhe mé ar an talamh seo.
Tá leathanta imithe,
Crochfaidh mé ón na rachtaí.

English Translation:
-------------------------

Seeking freedom in violent death.
Drunken roaming, my mind wanders.

A call from the moon,
a seeking of the earth.

A call from the grave,
a seeking of the earth.

From the earth it's fermented,
and I drink its nectar.
I seek the corrupted substance.
It's a trial, this wait.

The call from the grave,
A seeking of the earth.

I continue along the river bank.
With briars, thick and sharp.
I crawl through the undergrowth,
tearing my flesh.

From the earth it's fermented
and I drink its nectar.

Seeking freedom in a violent death.
Drunken roaming, my mind wanders.

And I drink the grounds nectar.
I hear the call from the twine.
I put it on the stil.
A wanderer, given to poitin.

I drink the grounds nectar.
I hear the call from the twine.
I put it on the stil.

Listen to the ancient torment
in the tomb of the dregs,
where I build my stil,
I'll stay here in my crypt.
Standing in hysterical laughter.

Listen to the ancient torment.
I am a man of knowledge on this earth.
Days have passed.
I'll hang from the rafters.
