Ageless Messenger lyrics

Moya Brennan

Born to the wilderness
Missing first on the line
Will the fear disappear?

[Chorus]
O aingil coimheád mé
O aingil as na fhlaithis
Solas geal níl eagla orm
O aingil coimhéadach
O aingil coimheád mé
O aingil as na fhlaithis
Solas geal níl eagla orm
O aingil coimhéadach

Behind the innocent
The last, the least and the lost
Will be found in the storm

[Chorus]

[Instrumental]

Burning by nightfall
Measuring by the light
Ageless messengers

[Chorus 2x]

Irish Gaelic
O aingil coimheád mé 
O aingil as na fhlaithis 
Solas geal níl eagla orm 
O aingil coimhéadach 
O aingil coimheád mé 
O aingil as na fhlaithis  
Solas geal níl eagla orm  
O aingil coimhéadach

I have no fear of you
My guardian angel
