Last summer, the folks at Coláiste Lurgan kept us entertained as they recreated some of the year’s biggest hits in our native language. Now they are back with the first one of summer 2014. Coldplay’s most recent single, Sky Full of Stars, gets the as Gaeilge treatment this time and, as per usual, it’s perfect.
“A Sky Full of Stars” is a song recorded by British alternative rock band Coldplay, it was released on 2 May 2014 as the third single from their sixth studio album, Ghost Stories (2014). The band co-wrote and co-produced the song with Avicii.
Faoi na soilse ag lonradh thuas os mo chionn. Tá mé ag tairiscint mo chroí. Faoi na soilse ag lonradh thuas os mo chionn. Tá sí ar tosach na slí.
Tá mé saor ach is léir nach bhfuil tú. Do mo stróiceadh ‘tá tú. ‘Sé faoi na soilse ag lonradh thuas os mo chionn. Go bhfeicfidh mé thú.
Tá mé saor ach is léir nach bhfuil tú. Do mo stróiceadh atá tú, ‘Sé faoi na soilse ag lonradh thuas os mo chionn, Go bhfeicfidh mé thú, go bhfeicfidh mé thú.
Mar is geal, mar is geal do ghrá, Mar is réalta thú. Is fíor gur réalta thú. X2
Under the lights shining above over my head. I am offering my heart. Under the lights shining above over my head. She is at the start of the way.
I am free but it’s clear you are not. You are tearing me apart. It’s under the lights shining above over my head. That I’ll see you.
I am free but it’s clear you are not. You are tearing me apart. It’s under the lights shining above over my head, That I’ll see you, that I’ll see you.
Because it’s bright, because your love is bright. Because you’re a star. It’s true that you’re a star. X2
