Ocht a Chlog
Tagann suipéar ar a cúig,réalt an tráthnóna ar a sé,
tagann mo leannánsa ar a hocht -
tá a hocht i bhfad i gcéin
Conas a d'fhulaingeoinn an lá
mura mbeadh mo shúil
ag breathnú ar na snáthaidí
a thugann a hocht a chlog chugam
Sara Teasdale
Eight O'Clock
Supper comes at five o'clock,At six, the evening star,
My lover comes at eight o'clock-
But eight o'clock is far.
How could I bear my pain all day
Unless I watched to see
The clock-hands laboring to bring
Eight o'clock to me.
