This was released as Gaeilge on the Seachtain na Gaeilge 2010 CD: CEOL 10: SÚIL SIAR. “Flame” is a single by the Irish pop rock quintet, Bell X1, and the second to be taken from the band’s third album Flock. It was released on 10 March 2006. It entered the Irish Singles Chart on 16 March 2006, spending four weeks there and peaking at #12. The BBC described it and follow-up single “Rocky Took a Lover” as “two of the finest pieces of music written on this island”, though lamented its lack of international success.[2] The song was later included in a collection of works giving a “sense of the noughties” put together by Vincent Murphy and broadcast on Morning Ireland on 31 December 2009.
Nuair a bhuail tú ar thaobh liom, chaill mé mo ghreim, Is ní bhinnse tógtha leis seo, easpa taithí i bhfeidhm B'fhéidir go bhfuilim ag eirí, beagáinín sean Ach ag breathnú ar? do chruth, ag breathnú chomh teann, Á tharraingt, á tharraingt chuig do bhladhm
Táim ag iarraidh a bheith taobh leat, i do sholas úrnua Is suí cois tine, ar oíche fhuar dhubh Taobh do bhladhm
Táim ag iarraidh a bheith taobh leat, i do sholas úrnua Is suí cois tine, ar oíche fhuar dhubh
Leátar do cholainn liom ar nós na Comaoineach Ach níor lig tú do Chríost do chloigeann a líonadh
Tá cuimhne an ghrá seo ag crochadh i mo chroí, Ach labharfainn níos mó faoi, dá dtuigfinn an bhrí Ach labharfainn níos mó? faoi, dá dtuigfinn an bhrí
Faigh réidh leis an scáth seo, dod bhrú 'nois ag cromadh Faoi na craobhacha, tar éis báisteach throm Ar do bhladhm Faigh réidh leis an scáth seo, dod bhrú 'nois ag cromadh Faoi na craobhacha, tar éis báisteach throm Ar do bhladhm
Scaoil tú? do bhladhm, istigh i spás mo chroí Scaoil tú do bhladhm, ag lasadh chuile ní Is tá do bhladhm, líonadh ballaí lena scáth,
Faigh réidh leis an scáth seo, dod bhrú 'nois ag cromadh Faoi na craobhacha, tar éis báisteach throm Ar do bhladhm
When your hand brushed against mine I thought I'd collapse I'm no rolling stone I gather too much moss Maybe it's 'cos I'm getting A little bit older But oh how your neck Flows to your shoulder It draws me, it draws me to your flame
I wanna be near you And blink in your light And toast marshmallows On a cold dark night By your flame
I wanna be near you And blink in your light And toast marshmallows On a cold dark night
Your flesh it melts in my mouth Like Holy Communion But you don't really care for Jesus now do you?
A photograph of this love Hangs on my wall I would dare to speak its name If I knew what it was called I would dare to speak its name If I knew what it was called
Rattle the one who's shadow You're standing in Under the branches after It's been raining On your flame I wanna be near you And blink in your light And toast marshmallows On a cold dark night By your flame
Your brought your flame Into the chambers of my heart You brought your flame Where all's been condemned to dark And now your flame Spits shadows on my walls
Rattle the one who's shadow You're standing in Under the branches after It's been raining On your flame
