SUMMERTIME

(Composed 1934. Music by George Gershwin. Lyrics by DuBose Heyward & Ira Gershwin)


Summertime

And the livin' is easy

Fish are jumpin'

And the cotton is high

Oh, your daddy's rich

And your ma is good-lookin'

So hush, little baby

Don't you cry.


One of these mornings

You're going to rise up singing

Then you'll spread your wings

And you'll take the sky

But 'til that morning

There's a'nothing can harm you

With daddy and mammy 

Standing by.

Provisional Lyrics in Scottish Gaelic  -


SAMHRADH LEINN


Samhradh leinn

’S tha ’n tighinn beò sàsta,

An t-iasg a’ leum,

’S tha an canach àrd làn.

Do dhadai math dheth, 

’S do mhamai glè àlainn,

O, bà bà nist mo leanabh,

Na bi caoidh.


Là dhe na làithean

Bidh tu dùsgadh le òran;

Nì thu èirigh air sgèith

A dh’ionnsaidh nan speur;

Mus bris an là sin

Chan eil sìon a nì beud dhut,

Le dadai is mamai

Le chèile dlùth.


(Fearghas MacFhionnlaigh, 5 May 2023)
