Ag Críost an Síol (Seán Ó Riada)

Ag Críost an síol, ag Críost an fómhar,
In iothlainn Dé go dtugtar sinn.
Ag Críost an mhuir, ag Críost an t-iasc,
I líonta Dé go gcastar sinn
Ó fhás go haois, is ó aois go bás,
Do dhá láimh, a Chríost, anall tharainn.
Ó bhás go críoch, ní críoch ach athfhás,
I bParthas na nGrást go rabhaimid.

English translation:

Christ’s is the seed, Christ’s is the crop, 

in the barn of God may we be brought. 

Christ’s is the sea, Christ’s is the fish, 

in the nets of God may we be caught. 


From growth to age, from age to death, 

Thy two arms, O Christ, about us. 

From death to end, not end but growth, 

in blessed Paradise may we be.
