Zombie - As Gaeilge

Keillí agus cór chúrsa C le leagan cumhachtach d'amhrán frithchogadh Dolores O'Riordan & Cranberries. 'Sí Jenny Ní Ruiséil a scríobh na liricí Gaeilge.

Cinn crochta (go)(h)ísle,
allta Leanbh caillte céasta
Is go fíochmhar, (i)’dtost na hoíche
A chiúnagh óg ‘s aosta

Ach a chroí, ní mo bhrí
Ní mo chlann, nó cuimhní
‘Tá ag troid, nó ag crith,
Iad in aighneas

Leis na tancanna lán,
Lán is dallta, le gráin
I do cheann, smaointe ann,
Bíonn siad scantraithe

I do cheann, i do cheann,
Zombaí, Zombaí, Zombaí
Céard ‘tá 'do cheann, i do cheann
Zombaí, Zombaí, Zombaí

Croí máithre sáite báite,
Cráite leis an mbuairt seo
Nuair is fíochmha(i)r(e) tost ná aoibh
Is éasca ‘n phian a thabhairt leat

Mar an ‘gcéanna, ón bhliain
A chailleadh, réabhlóidí
‘Siad ag troid, iad ag crith
Iad ag fulaingt

Lena gcroíthe comh lán
Iad comh lán, lena bhfonn
I do cheann i do cheann
Fós in aighneas

I do cheann, i do cheann,
Zombaí, Zombaí, Zombaí
Céard ‘tá 'do cheann, i do cheann
Zombaí, Zombaí, Zombaí

Many choirs that cover this, seem far to happy considering the meaning of the song.
This is a more fitting adaption than so many others. Well done 👍

[MunkeeFWRrng]

What a fitting song to reprise. Haunting yet powerful. Rest In Peace, Delores.

Ok you made me cry. My family is from Derry and this song has always had a deep emotional pull for me. Hearing it as Gaeilge is indescribably profound.

[veronicadredd]

So fitting a tribute, Dolores was fluent in the Irish language

[adamfunkhouser]

I found a preview of this on TikTok and had to come find the entire performance. Absolute chills. This is haunting, powerful, spiritual, and beautiful. I can hear Dolores in your voice. I can't wait to hear more of your music.

[clare]

I got chills. The girl at 1:06 seriously made me want to cry, everybody looks so passionate about what they’re singing

[luvisabelxo]

this song is about the irish troubles, hurts me even more that they have to use it again for another war. Hope their comes peace in the world🇺🇦🇮🇪

Awesome voice, young lady. Great job Little-ones. From across the pond in America.

I have wanted to hear this tune as Gaeilge since I started learning Irish last January and now you all have done it! Maith thú agus go raibh maith agaibh. I am glad to add this to part of my journey learning Irish as other songs you have done as a program have inspired me to learn in some small but not insignificant way. Just so you know how far your efforts have reached, is as Ceanada mé 😃

[ChristopherSampson-njtw]

This young lady is amazing. Not only did she tackle a song from a star like Delores O'Riordan but the song itself addresses The Troubles. Fantastic

[lorenzp]

This is a powerfull video. Matches the importance of the song.

[loreman]

Yike! The orchestral setting makes this better than the original!
Chills! 🤩😍

[alarm_ara]

Fuaimeann sé go han-mhaith, tá tú i ndáiríre cool! Dia duit ón Úcráin, tuigimid conas atá sé tábhachtach a popularize ár dteanga féin ar ár dtír, a Impireacht iarracht uair amháin a bhaint de. 💕

I am not sure of translation, so I add English to be clear:
It sounds very well, you are really cool! Hi from Ukraine, we understand how it's important to popularize our own language of our country, which empire once tried to take away. 💕

[brentling]

Truly amazing version of this song. Original artist should be proud of You All. Well done. 👏👏

[MalinoisRule]

So glad to have you guys back ! Beautiful. I need to learn Irish.

[samuelerns]

I am German, I don't understand one word but it sounds so beautiful. Lived in Ireland for barley a year and I love the Gaelic language 💪

[vivianlemottee]

Delores O'Riordan would have a huge smile on her face if she could hear these kids singing her song....in Irish.🇦🇺❤️🇮🇪

[amknify]

We are learning this song in school, and this is actually lovely and.. sad.

[barbaraodonnell]

My Hubby Shamus O'Donnell approve this Video!

[Alexa-andfreinds]
