Lúireach Phádraig

Lúireach Phádraig
(St. Patrick's Breastplate)

Críost liom,
Christ with me,

Críost romham,
Christ before me,

Críost i mo dhiaidh,
Christ behind me,

Críost istigh ionam,
Christ inside me,

Críost fúm, Críost os mo chionn,
Christ under me, Christ above me,

Críost ar mo lámh dheas,
Christ on my right hand,

Críost ar mo lámh chlé,
Christ on my left hand,

Críost mar a luífidh mé,
Christ where I'm lying down,

Críost mar a suífidh mé,
Christ where I'm sitting,

Críost mar a seasfaidh mé,
Christ where I'm standing,

Críost i gcroí gach duine a chuimhníonn orm,
Christ in the heart of each person who remembers me,

Críost i mbéal gach duine a labhraíonn orm,
Christ in the mouth of each person who speaks of me,

Críost i ngach súil a fhéachann orm,
Christ in each eye that looks at me,

Críost i ngach cluas a éisteann liom.
Christ in each ear that listens to me.
