La fille de Shannon [English translation]

Shannon's daughter lives at the end of a world

Where nothing eases disappointed love

And it rains, it rains, on Ireland's meadows

And it rains, it rains, on Ireland's fields

And she sings to those who smile to her

Don't mock a girl who loves

Don't mock a girl who gives her heart

Don't mock a girl who is beautiful

Before time abandons her

Like a flower, she gives it all

Keeping her hope high

Don't mock a girl who gives everything

Shannon's daughter counts on a promise

Made in front of the fireplace, on a drunken night

And it rains, it rains, on the secret of moors

And it rains, it rains, on the legends and myths

And she sings to those who smile to her

Don't mock a girl who loves

Don't mock a girl who gives her heart

Don't mock a girl who is beautiful

Before time abandons her

Like a flower, she gives it all

Keeping her hope high

Don't mock a girl who gives everything
