Storms in Africa (With Translations to Right)

C? fhad ? ?                                How far is it from?
Si?l tr?d na stoirmeacha.                  Walking through the storms
Dul tr?d na stoirmeacha.                   Going through the storms

C? fhad ? ?                                How far is it from?
An t?s don stoirm.                         The beginning of the storm
An t?s go deiradh.                         The start to the end

T?g do Chro?.                              Take your heart
T?g do chro?sa.                            Take your beloved

Turas m?r.                                 Long Journey
Tor tr?d na Stoirmeacha.                   Heavy through the storm

Turas fada.                                Long Journey
Amharc tr?d na Stoirmeacha.                Look through the Storm

Translation by Fidelma McGinn.
Storms in Africa (Part II)


Though I walk through
warm sands in Africa
winds will grow soon
to storms in Africa.

How far to go
I cannot say.
How many more
will journey this way?

Dark skies fall on
black earth and ivory.
Far from your sun
clouds now close over me.

How far to go
I cannot say.
How many more
will journey this way?

Storms have come!
rains wash the earth away
Dark skies fall down
into another day.
Rains have now come
from storms in Africa
Time will go on
through Storms in Africa
