Lyrics: Moya Brennan. Sailing Away.

Sailing away to deeper oceans
Hearts are weary
These sleepless nights are hard
But I'm still longing for the hand that led me
Where I had spent my youth away

D'fhag me slan ag na daoine' ta fagtha
'San talamh a rugadh me
D'fhag me slan ag daoine istigh i mo chroi
Sin mar a bheas choiche
(I said farewell to everyone I love)
(And the land that I'll never see again)

Sweeping the waves to foreign mountains
Strange and lonely
I struggle to be brave
How I tremble remembering your brown eyes
Don't let my memories fade away

D'fhag me slan ag na daoine' ta fagtha
'San talamh a rugadh me
D'fhag me slan ag daoine istigh i mo chroi
Sin mar a bheas choiche
