Avicii Vs Lurgan - 'Wake Me Up' as Gaeilge

Liricí thíos:
Stiofán Ó Fearail ó Seo Linn in éineacht le scoláirí & foireann chúrsa C lena leagan féin de "Wake Me Up" le Avicii.
Chuaigh an t-úafás oibre agus réiteach isteach sa bhfíseán ceoil seo agus tá súil againn go dtaitneoidh sé libh

Fáinne fí i gcoim na hoíche.
(Níl) 'tada riamh nach mbíonn thart.
Diabhail fhios a'm cá bhfuil deireadh mo scéil
Ach táim ar an mbealach ceart.

Deir siad liom gan a dhul sa tseans,
Nach dtagann ciall roimh aois.
Bhuel 'sé m'aistear é, Ní léir cén fhad a mhairfidh sé,
'Sé togha ar aon chaoi.

So Lig mé saor ón suan 'tá orm.
(Tai)speáin 'om bóthar éasca cothrom.
Bainfidh mé ceann scríbe amach, sí m'aidhm,
Cíbe treo átá i ndán.

(Tá) Mé ag iompar úalach mór an tsaoil
Ach níl a'm ach péire lámh.
Suile troma is an ghrian a dhul faoi
Ach ní chodlaíonn mé go sámh.

"Bris amach agus tú fós sach óg."
Chinnigh mé le dul in aghaidh.
Seo mo ré, Seasfaidh mé an fód,
'S leanfaidh mé ar aghaidh.

Almost 3 years since this has been released and it has taught more people and children As Gaeilge in 10 minutes than what a school has in 6 years, this song is a perfect example that future generations really don't hate the language, they just hate how the schools are teaching it, simple as.

[Ash-uvck]

This song: *exists*
Every primary school in Ireland:
Hippity hoppity this song is now my property.

[chipsinsideajar]

I understand exactly 0% of this, but I still love it. Keep Irish Gaelic alive and well, m'dudes

[stiofanofearail]

RIP Avicii. Las tú tine faoi chúis na Gaeilge i ngan fhios dhuit féin. Go raibh míle maith a'at agus suaimhneas síoraí ar d'anam.

[johndoughnut]

12 years of learning Irish in school, this actually makes it worth it. Haha.

[rozfly]

LOVE IT! It's better in Irish :) Keep your national language a life.
Greetings Irish brothers from Slovenia!

[kellyocymru]

As a welsh speaker i love their covers. They just have a little something special about them also trying to promote the irish language just like the welsh do. Da iawn. Bendigedig xxx

[bridgetseritt]

This kid has a great voice! I can actually hear the words and now prefer the Gaeilge version! Using these to help my kids learn Irish!

[rosemarymahoney]

I never thought I would see young kids like this singing popular songs in Irish. Nor singing with such enthusiasm. What a beautiful thing this is. My mother would roll in her grave with happiness. Long live the best Irish language teacher ever: LIsa MItchell, who lived in Ceathru, Dun Chaoin, Dingle, County Kerry.

Wake Me Up is my favorite song of all time. I am American, I am not Irish. I do not speak Irish. But I love the Irish spin on this song. They made the melody sound so Irish. I wish I had discovered this sooner.

[parkkahi]

This is so amazing! I love Ireland and Irish people, greetings from Thailand 😍🇮🇪🇹🇭

[Monstervill]

I can not understand how it is possible that at present the Irish language is minority in its native land. You, as Irish, are lucky to have this treasure that you must keep alive. As I always say, the best way to maintain and defend a living language is speaking it as possible.  Congratulations on this great version of this Avicii's song. Greetings of a Spaniard who loves your language and his own (Valencian / Catalan).

Gaelic just makes everything better! Learning scots gaelic at the moment, irish is next 😁😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

[beibhinn]

This is what Irish should be taught in schools.

[fuldagermany]

I think the Irish are just beautiful looking and I find them fascinating.  I have some American Irish friends and just love them so very much.  Good hearts and souls and oh, my, can they drink me under the table.

[JoanSkyers]

I'm from Poland, and I love Gaeilge :D Irish language is the best ! :D

[Stewi]

I wish us Scots did something like this for our language. Great job!

[adamender]

It's funny that this has more views than the population of the island of Ireland

[magyar]

It is so wonderful to see young people embrace their culture and language. Well done all.

[Blanschee]

I can not say how much I adore this. Image all cultures would show themselfs like this. No bombs, no guns, no wars, simply a celebration of your own unique beeing.
Best ambassodors for Ireland, love it
