Lyrics:

Traditional, Irish Gaelic

Oa­che Chiaºin

Oa­che chiaºin, oa­che Mhic Da,
Ca¡ch 'na suan da­s araon.
Da­s is da­lse 'faire le spais
Naa­on beag, leanbh ceansa 'gus caomh.

Cra­ost, 'na chodladh go sa¡mh.
Cra­ost, 'na chodladh go sa¡mh.

Oa­che chiaºin, oa­che Mhic Da,
Aoira­ ar dtaºs chuala 'n scaal.
Allelaºia aingeal ag glaoch.
Cantain suairc i ngar is i gcain.

Cra­ost an Sla¡naitheoir Fain.
Cra­ost an Sla¡naitheoir Fain.

Translation

Silent Night

Silent night, night of God's son,
Everyone is asleep, the pair together.
The most faithful pair, watching with hope
A little baby, a mild and gentle child.

Christ, calmly asleep.
Christ, calmly asleep.

Silent night, night of God's son,
Shepherds were first to hear the tale.
The angels crying out Alleluia.
Lovely chanting near and far.

Christ, the saviour himself.
Christ, the saviour himself
