Despacito in Irish. It was only a matter of time before the all-singing all-dancing students at Coláiste Lurgan offered their own take on it.  Yesterday students from the college shared their Irish language version of Despacito entitled I Do Dhiaidh Chomh. The performance was led by four students named Jack, John, Dara and Diego.

“Despacito” (“Slowly”) is a single by Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi featuring Puerto Rican rapper Daddy Yankee from Fonsi’s upcoming studio album. On January 12, 2017, Universal Music Latin released “Despacito” and its music video, which shows both artists performing the song in La Perla neighborhood of Old San Juan, Puerto Rico and the local bar La Factoría. The song was written by Fonsi, Erika Ender, and Daddy Yankee, and was produced by Mauricio Rengifo and Andrés Torres. A remix version featuring Canadian singer Justin Bieber was released on April 17, 2017, which helped to improve the song’s chart performance in numerous countries, particularly in the English-speaking world.

Come on over, just not with him.
Don’t keep it a secret. I feel it too.
Yeah
Weighing this side and that.
Yeah,
Better
The setting sun at the end of the day,
The moon shining, soft and gentle.
I’m trying to hold on to every moment,
Always, always

It hit me so fast. Now I don’t know.
If nothing other than this was ever meant for me.
I have you now at long last.
Could this be true forever?
Baby, go slow and be [here] with me forever

Oh it’s you, it’s you, that drives me completely crazy,
My blood boiling hot when you’re near me.
Nothing ever could be greater.
Oh, yeah, yeah. I want you, no matter the danger?
You’ll stay here till the end of time.
Nothing ever again that will bring us down.

Chorus:
My longing for you
Is as big as the sun multiplied by two.
All that’s in that and even more till judgement day
And from there until forevermore.
My longing for you
Is as big as the sun multiplied by two.
All that’s in that and even more till judgement day
And from there until forevermore.

Girl, you are cutting right through me.
I feel the ground moving beneath me.
I’m unaware of the waves that are drowning me.
You’re the only one who can save me,
Save me, baby.
Everything I thought before is now upside down.
You were meant to be my one and only cure.
I give you my soul and all that’s within me.

If I ask you for a kiss, give it to me.
I know that you’re thinking of it.
I’ve been for a long time trying to do it.
Mami, this is giving and giving it.
You know that your heart with me makes a bang-bang.
You know that baby is looking for my bang-bang.
Come, try out my mouth to see how it tastes.
I want, I want to see how much love you can take.
I am in no hurry. I want to take the journey.
Let’s start slowly, then later go wild.

It’s alive, it’s alive.
Shout out, it’s alive.
We don’t care about anything.
We will last forever.
It is the most beautiful
That’s what I will say.
Don’t bother with those who put it down.
Let them go to hell.
