I am a fountain, You are my water
le Zeynep Hatun
(15ú hAois)
I am a fountain, You are my water.
I flow from You to You.
I am an eye, You are my light,
I look from You to You.
You are neither my right nor my left.
You are my foot and my arm as well.
I am a traveler, You are my road.
I go from You to You.
Scairdeán mise, tusa an t-uisce
Scairdeán mise, tusa an t-uisce
Uaitse Chugatsa mo shní.
Súil atá ionamsa, tusa an solas,
Uaitse Chugatsa a fhéachaim.
Ní ar dheis ná ar chlé ataoise.
Is tú mo chos is mo lámh chomh maith.
Taistealaí mise, tusa an ród
Uaitse Chugatsa mo thriall.
