Bí-se I Mo Shúil

(Be Thou My Vision in gælic, English translation by Adodh ó Dugáin)

Bí-se i mo shúil, a Rí mhór na ndúil
Líon thusa mo bheatha
Mo cheadfaí's mo stuaim
Bí thusa i m'aigne gach
oíche's gach lá
Im chodladh no im dhúiseacht líon
Mé le do grá

Bí thusa mo threorú i
mbriathar is i mbeart
Fan thusa go Deo
Liom is coinnigh mé ceart
Glac curam mar
Athair is eist le mo ghuí
Is tabhair domsa
áit conaí istigh i do chroí

Be my Eyes, O King of creation
Fill my life with understanding and patience.
Will You be my mind every night and every day,
sleeping or awake?
Fill me with Your Love.

Will You be my guidance
in my words and actions?
Stay with me forever
and keep me on the right path.
As my Father take care of me,
And listen to my prayers,
and give me a place
to live inside Your heart.
