Mo Ghile Mear [English translation]

Oh1, king of the sea

king of the sea,

oh, king of the sea

king of the sea.

He's my champion my Gallant Darling,

He's my Caesar, a Gallant Darling,

I've found neither rest nor fortune

Since my Gallant Darling went far away.

Oh, king of the sea

king of the sea.

Hail the hero strong and true

who fought the fight and saw it through

who swore he'd ne'er would be a slave

and gave his life our land to save.

He's my champion my Gallant Darling,

He's my Caesar, a Gallant Darling,

I've found neither rest nor fortune

Since my Gallant Darling went far away.

Oh, king of the sea

king of the sea.

From our wild Atlantic shore

above the mighty ocean's roar

let's sing from the highest mountain side

of heroes who fill our hearts with pride.

He's my champion my Gallant Darling,

He's my Caesar, a Gallant Darling,

I've found neither rest nor fortune

Since my Gallant Darling went far away.

Oh, king of the sea

king of the sea.

He's my champion my Gallant Darling,

He's my Caesar, a Gallant Darling,

I've found neither rest nor fortune

Since my Gallant Darling went far away.

1. from what I can gather, 'Óró' is a cheering or greeting.
