ná bí ag taibhreamh, a shearc
ní heol dúinn cá dtabharfaidh
taibhrimh sinn: fan id' dhúiseacht
        cnuasaigh do chuid taibhreamh
        ullmhaigh le haghaidh a loiscthe iad
do not dream, beloved
we know not where dreams
will take us: stay awake
        gather your dreams together
        prepare them for the fire
