Lyrics
When lilacs are lush and bees in the blossom
When cuckoos are calling and blackbirds do sing
Oh, sleep in your silence, oh babe of my bosom
As through the green grove your cradle I swing
Arrane saveenagh, lhiannoo veg veen.
On green hills afar the shadows they darken,
The moon's silver cradle is shining above;
Within it I'll lay you, and there you shall hearken
The songs that the stars sing, Child of my love.
Arrane saveenagh, lhiannoo veg veen.
O smile in your sleep, my beautiful baby,
Although the ship's rocking and billows run high;
Far o'er the wild water, whatever our way be,
O child of my heart, 'tis safe you shall lie.
Arrane saveenagh, lhiannoo veg veen.
When lilacs are lush and bees in the blossom
When cuckoos are calling and blackbirds do sing
Oh, sleep in your silence, oh babe of my bosom
As through the green grove your cradle I swing
Arrane saveenagh, lhiannoo veg veen.
