Irish Piece
Samhradh, samhradh, an samhradh atá ann;
An ghrian go hard sa spéir;
Na garsúin óga ag snámh ins an abhainn,
Agus glór ag na leanaí go léir.
Samhradh, samhradh, an samhradh atá ann,
Gan néal, gan scamall sa speír;
Dath ar an bhfraoch go flúirseach ar bheann,
Agus ceol ag na héin go léir.
English Piece
The door was shut, as doors should be,
Before you went to bed last night;
But Jack Frost has got in, you see,
And left your window silver white.
He must have waited till you slept;
And not a single word he spoke,
But pencilled o'er the panes and crept
Away again before you woke.
No entries permitted on day of event.
