Mo Lóchrann (My Lantern)

Song for 4-part choir (SATB)
English Translation:
My Lantern
At the midnight hour
Clasped in my hand.
My feet were worn out beneath me
After walking thousands of wandering roads
And my journey overshadowed by peaks on every side
When you lit up the way before me again.
At the midnight hour
Clasped in my hand.
My thoughts were entangled
After reading thousands of wandering words
And my boat adrift in the current
When you transformed the surf into a bright still sea
The waves were thrashing me
With no view of the pier through the spray
When you transformed the surf into a bright still sea.

I love stumbling on a beautiful new music RUclips, like being first to the well in the morning. Being of Scots-Irish ancestry myself, I'm always drawn to songs in Gaelic, and the image of the lantern by the sea makes me want to know the lyrics in English. Beautiful sound, though.
