Gartan Mother's Lullaby (Luke kelly Version)
ASleep, oh babe, for the red bee hums the Dsilent twilight's Afall
Ee val from the Dgrey rock Acomes to wrap the world in Dthrall
AA leanbhín ó, my child, my joy, my own and heart's Ddesire
The crickets sing you Alullaby beside the Ddying Afire
Dusk is drawn and the Green Man's thorn is wreathed in rings of fog
Sheevra sails his boat till morn, across the starry bog
A leanbhín ó, the paley moon has brimmed her cusp in dew
And weeps to hear the sad sleep tune I sing, o love, to you
