lyrics

A’ bhfaca tú mo Shéamaisín
Mo mhaicín óg, mo bhuachaillín?
A’ bhfaca tú mo Shéamaisín
Is é ‘dhul síos an bóthar?

Níl bróg ar bith ar a dhá choisín
Ar a dhá choisín, ar a dhá choisín
Níl bróg ar bith ar a dhá choisín
Ná hata air ná clóca.

A’ dhul ar scoil tá Séamaisín
Mo mhaicín óg, mo bhuachaillín
A’ dhul ar scoil tá Séamaisín
‘S a leabhairín buí ina phóca.

Ar a dhroim tá mailín beag
Tá mailín beag, tá mailín beag
Ar a dhroim tá mailín beag
‘S a lóinín ann is dócha.

A’ bhfaca tú mo Shéamaisín
Mo mhaicín óg, mo bhuachaillín?
A’ bhfaca tú mo Shéamaisín
Is é ‘dhul síos an bóthar?

Translation:
Have you seen my little Séamus
My young little son, my little boy
Have you seen my little Séamus
And he going down the road?

There are no shoes at all on his two little feet
On his two little feet, on his two little feet
There are no shoes at all on his two little feet
Nor a hat on him, nor a cloak.

Little Séamus is going to school
My young little son, my little boy
Little Séamus is going to school
And his little yellow book in his pocket.

On his back is a little bag
Is a little bag, is a little bag
On his back is a little bag
And probably his little lunch in it.

Caera Seattle, Washington

From haunting Celtic lullabies, through laments of intense grief and pain, to songs of healing and hope, Caera’s music always contains an authenticity that can be hard to find in today’s music, or even in today’s world in general. Powerful soprano vocals blend with the bell-like tones of her brass-strung Gaelic harp to create music that carries people through life, dreaming or fully awake. ... more
