Gabhaim molta Bríghde
Ionmhain í le hÉirinn
Ionmhain le gach tír í
Molaimís go léir í
I am praising Bridget
Who is daughter of Ireland
She is a daughter of all countries
We all praise her
Lóchrann geal na Laighneach
Soilsiú feadh na tíre
Ceann ar óghaibh Éireann
Ceann na mban ar míne
The bright light of Leinster
Bringing light to the country
The leader of the youth of Ireland
Our leader of gentlewomen
Tig an geimhreadh dian dubh
Gearradh lena ghéire
Ach ar lá ‘le Bríghde
Gar dúinn Earrach Éireann
Here comes the dark, hard winter
Cutting with its sharpness
But on St. Bridget’s Day
Ireland’s spring is close by
Gabhaim molta Bríghde
Ionmhain í le hÉirinn
Ionmhain le gach tír í
Molaimís go léir í
I am praising Bridget
Who is daughter of Ireland
She is a daughter of all countries
We all praise her
