Lyrics Oíche Chiún (Silent Night)

Oà­che chiúin, oà­che Mhic Dé,
Cách 'na suan dà­s araon.
Dà­s is dà­lse 'faire le spéis
Naà­on beag, leanbh ceansa 'gus caomh.

Crà­ost, 'na chodladh go sámh.
Crà­ost, 'na chodladh go sámh.

Oà­che chiúin, oà­che Mhic Dé,
Aoirà­ ar dtús chuala 'n scéal.
Allelúia aingeal ag glaoch.
Cantain suairc i ngar is i gcéin.

Crà­ost an Slánaitheoir Féin.
Crà­ost an Slánaitheoir Féin.

Translation
Silent night, night of God's son,
Everyone is asleep, the pair together.
The most faithful pair, watching with hope
A little baby, a mild and gentle child.

Christ, calmly asleep.
Christ, calmly asleep.

Silent night, night of God's son,
Shepherds were first to hear the tale.
The angels crying out Alleluia.
Lovely chanting near and far.

Christ, the saviour himself.
Christ, the saviour himself.
