Take my body Plant me in the dirt I'll become one With all life that's on the earth And the trees, they are my mother They will care for me Take my voice Give it to the birds Hear them rejoice In song across the world And their song came from my father They will sing for me Take my soul Wash it in the seas Through the oceans I will be at peace Let the waves become my sister She will carry me She will carry me Glac uaim an cholainn seo Cuir í síos san úir Mo laoi is mo mhíle buíochas glac Mar a ghlac ón athair a ghearrcach Glac feasta mo mhisneach is mo mhéin Gan de dhíon ach máthair na gcraobh Glac m'anam agus nigh sa tsáile Thar gach tuile, féach is ná fág Ach bronn ar an naíon A bhfuil ina rosc radharc Dé Ardaigh libh an cholainn seo A thonn, a ghaoth, a réaltaí spéire Agus tabhair toradh ar an nguí Loisceadh agus dó, lig dom chroí Take my spirit Let her dance across the sky For men and women The ones I left behind Let my lovers lost become stars They will burn in me Take my heart Give it to the child My child of god With heaven in his eyes He was born to beat life's rhythm He will beat for me They will burn in me They will carry me They will sing for me They will care for me
