Gearrthóg Físe
Lyrics
No more champagne
– Gan níos mó champagne
And the fireworks are through
– Agus tá na tinte ealaíne tríd
Here we are, me and you
– Here is me and you
Feeling lost and feeling blue
– Ag mothú caillte agus ag mothú gorm
It’s the end of the party
– Is end party
And the morning seems so grey
– Agus is cosúil go bhfuil an mhaidin chomh liath
So unlike yesterday
– Mar sin murab ionann agus inné
Now’s the time for us to say
– Tá sé in am dúinn a rá
Happy New Year, Happy New Year
– Athbhliain Faoi Mhaise Daoibh, Happy New Year
May we all have a vision now and then
– Go mbeadh fís againn go léir anois agus arís
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
– Ar domhan ina bhfuil gach comharsa ina chara
Happy New Year, Happy New Year
– Athbhliain Faoi Mhaise Daoibh, Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
– Go mbeadh ár ndóchas againn go léir, ár n-uacht triail a bhaint as
If we don’t, we might as well lay down and die
– Mura ndéanaimid, d ‘ fhéadfaimis luí síos agus bás a fháil
You and I
– Tusa agus mise
Sometimes I see
– Uaireanta feicim
How the brave new world arrives
– Conas a thagann an domhan nua cróga
And I see how it thrives
– Agus feicim conas a éiríonn leis
In the ashes of our lives
– I luaithreach ár saol
Oh yes, man is a fool
– Ó sea, is amadán é fear
And he thinks he’ll be okay
– Agus ceapann sé go mbeidh sé ceart go leor
Dragging on, feet of clay
– Ag tarraingt ar, cosa cré
Never knowing he’s astray
– Riamh a fhios aige go bhfuil sé ar strae
Keeps on going anyway
– Coinníonn sé ar siúl ar aon nós
Happy New Year, Happy New Year
– Athbhliain Faoi Mhaise Daoibh, Happy New Year
May we all have a vision now and then
– Go mbeadh fís againn go léir anois agus arís
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
– Ar domhan ina bhfuil gach comharsa ina chara
Happy New Year, Happy New Year
– Athbhliain Faoi Mhaise Daoibh, Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
– Go mbeadh ár ndóchas againn go léir, ár n-uacht triail a bhaint as
If we don’t, we might as well lay down and die
– Mura ndéanaimid, d ‘ fhéadfaimis luí síos agus bás a fháil
You and I
– Tusa agus mise
Seems to me now
– Feictear dom anois
That the dreams we had before
– Go raibh na brionglóidí a bhí againn roimhe seo
Are all dead, nothing more
– Tá siad go léir marbh, rud ar bith níos mó
Than confetti on the floor
– Ná confetti ar an urlár
It’s the end of a decade
– Is a decade ‘ s end
In another ten years time
– I gceann deich mbliana eile
Who can say what we’ll find
– Cé atá in ann a rá cad a gheobhaimid
What lies waiting down the line
– Cad atá suite ag fanacht síos an líne
In the end of eighty-nine
– Ag deireadh ochtó a naoi
Happy New Year, Happy New Year
– Athbhliain Faoi Mhaise Daoibh, Happy New Year
May we all have a vision now and then
– Go mbeadh fís againn go léir anois agus arís
Of a world where every neighbour is a friend
– Ar domhan ina bhfuil gach comharsa ina chara
Happy New Year, Happy New Year
– Athbhliain Faoi Mhaise Daoibh, Happy New Year
May we all have our hopes, our will to try
– Go mbeadh ár ndóchas againn go léir, ár n-uacht triail a bhaint as
If we don’t, we might as well lay down and die
– Mura ndéanaimid, d ‘ fhéadfaimis luí síos agus bás a fháil
You and I
– Tusa agus mise
