She never told her love/ Níor nocht sí riamh a grá

File: William Shakespeare
Cumadóir: Joseph Haydn
She never told her love,
But let concealment, like a worm in the bud,
Feed on her damask cheek...;
She sat, like Patience on a monument,
Smiling at grief.

Níor nocht sí riamh a grá

Níor nocht sí riamh a grá,
Ach lig don rúndacht, ina péist sa bhachlóg,
Bheith ar a grua mhín …
Do shuigh, b’í Foighn’ í ar leac phoiblí
Is gháir faoin bpian.
