Bi Thusa Mo Sh�ile (Be Thou My Vision) Lyrics
(Trad. - arrangement by M�ire Brennan)
(Translated by my late grandfather, Hugh Duggan)
B� Thusa mo sh�ile a
R� mhor na nd�il
L�on thusa mo bheatha mo
Cheadfa� 's mo stuaim
B� thusa I m'aigne
Gach oiche 's gach l�
Im chodladh no im dh�iseacht
L�on me le do gr�
B� thusa mo threor� I mbriathar
Is I mbeart
Fan thusa go deo liom
Is coinnigh me ceart
Glac c�ram mar Athair
Is eist le mo ghu�
Is tabhair domsa �it cona�
Istigh I do chro�
(NB: this is not a direct translation, but the original
English lyrics to Be Thou My Vision:
Be Thou my Vision
O Lord of my heart
Naught be all else to me
Save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought
By day or by night
Waking or sleeping
Thy presence my light
Be Thou my Wisdom
And Thou my true Word
I ever with Thee
And Thou with me, Lord
Thou my great Father
I Thy true son
Thou in me dwelling
And I with Thee one)
