Gearrthóg Físe
Lyrics
There’s guitars ringin’ now from the top floor of this house
– Tá giotáir ag ringin ‘ anois ó urlár uachtarach an tí seo
That I’ve learned to rest my soul inside
– Gur fhoghlaim mé m ‘ anam a chur ar ais istigh
Be still, be quiet, this world’s a giant
– Bí fós, bí ciúin, is fathach an domhan seo
That I don’t feel like facing tonight
– Nach mbraitheann mé ag tabhairt aghaidh anocht
I don’t have the words yet, I’ll smoke a cigarette
– Níl na focail agam fós, caithfidh mé toitín
Even though she’ll smell it on my breath
– Cé go mbeidh boladh uirthi ar mo anáil
I say I want kids even though I can’t quit
– Deirim go dteastaíonn páistí uaim cé nach féidir liom éirí as
The things that make me childish
– Na rudaí a chuireann leanaí orm
But it ain’t all bad, the windows are cracked
– Ach níl sé go léir dona, tá na fuinneoga scáinte
I came down to hear you laughin’ in the kitchen, babe
– Tháinig mé síos chun tú a chloisteáil ag gáire sa chistin, babe
Let’s pour some wine, there’s still a little time
– A ligean ar doirt roinnt fíona, tá beagán ama fós ann
And maybe a little bit left in me to save
– Agus b ‘ fhéidir beagán fágtha i dom a shábháil
Be still, be quiet, the world’s a giant
– Bí socair, bí ciúin, fathach an domhain
I ain’t ever had myself a David’s heart
– Ní raibh Croí Dháibhí riamh agam I ‘ve never had a David’ s heart
I’ll say sorry to God for all the trouble I caused
– Beidh brón Orm le Dia as an trioblóid ar fad a chruthaigh mé
Maybe that’s a good place for me to start
– B ‘ fhéidir gur áit mhaith é sin dom tosú
You’ll be holdin’ to no other holdless boy
– Beidh tú a bheith holdin ‘ le aon bhuachaill holdless eile
I heard breathin’ this world is the thief of joy
– Chuala mé breathin ‘ is é an domhan seo gadaí an áthais
You’re better off fightin’ than you are dead
– Tá tú níos fearr as troid ‘ ná mar atá tú marbh
The time for rest ain’t now ’cause the kids need fed
– Níl an t-am le haghaidh sosa anois ‘ mar is gá na páistí a chothú
The time for rest ain’t now ’cause the kids need fed
– Níl an t-am le haghaidh sosa anois ‘ mar is gá na páistí a chothú
Guitars ringin’ now from the top of that house
– ‘S a phádraigín ní uallacháin ó’ n tigh sin anois
We used to rest our souls inside
– Ba ghnách linn ár n-anamacha a chur ar ais istigh
Nothing lasts, memories pass
– Ní mhaireann aon rud, pas cuimhní cinn
Think of home on an August night
– Smaoinigh ar bhaile ar oíche lúnasa
There’s reasons to go, reasons to stay
– Cúiseanna le fanacht-reasons to stay
Just know you’ll fear it all anyway
– Bíodh a fhios agat go mbeidh eagla ort ar aon nós
Be still, be quiet, this world’s a giant
– Bí fós, bí ciúin, is fathach an domhan seo
Maybe there’s a little bit left to save
– B ‘ fhéidir go bhfuil beagán fágtha le sábháil
You’ll be holding to no other holdless boy
– Beidh tú a choinneáil ar aon bhuachaill holdless eile
I heard breathin’ this world is the thief of joy
– Chuala mé breathin ‘ is é an domhan seo gadaí an áthais
You’re better off fightin’ than you are dead
– Tá tú níos fearr as troid ‘ ná mar atá tú marbh
The time for rest ain’t now ’cause the kids need fed
– Níl an t-am le haghaidh sosa anois ‘ mar is gá na páistí a chothú
The time for rest ain’t now, the kids need fed
– Níl an t-am chun sosa anois, teastaíonn bia ó na páistí
