The Celtic poem "Be Thou My Vision" is one of the most beloved and enduring expressions of faith, rooted in the deep spirituality of early Irish Christianity. Likely composed by an anonymous Irish monk in the 6th or 7th century, the poem is a heartfelt prayer that centers on the desire for God's guidance and presence in every aspect of life. The speaker implores God to be their vision, wisdom, and protector, emphasizing a profound dependence on the divine for clarity, strength, and direction. The imagery of the poem is rich and evocative, reflecting the Celtic tradition of seeing God's hand in all creation and seeking His light to illuminate the path of life. "Be Thou My Vision" resonates with the theme of spiritual longing, where the believer desires not just to follow God's will, but to have God so intimately present that He becomes the lens through which all of life is perceived. This poem has transcended its origins to become a timeless hymn, cherished for its simple yet powerful message of faith, devotion, and the transformative power of divine guidance in the believer's journey.
Rop tú mo baile,
a Choimdiu cride:
ní ní nech aile
acht Rí secht nime.
Rop tú mo scrútain
i l-ló 's i n-aidche;
rop tú ad-chëar
im chotlud caidche.
Rop tú mo labra,
rop tú mo thuicsiu;
rop tussu dam-sa,
rob misse duit-siu.
Rop tussu m'athair,
rob mé do mac-su;
rop tussu lem-sa,
rob misse lat-su.
Rop tú mo chathscíath,
rop tú mo chlaideb;
rop tussu m'ordan,
rop tussu m'airer.
Rop tú mo dítiu,
rop tú mo daingen;
rop tú nom-thocba
i n-áentaid n-aingel.
Rop tú cech maithius
dom churp, dom anmain;
rop tú mo flaithius
i n-nim 's i talmain.
Rop tussu t' áenur
sainserc mo chride;
ní rop nech aile
acht Airdrí nime.
Co talla forum,
ré n-dul it láma,
mo chuit, mo chotlud,
ar méit do gráda.
Rop tussu t' áenur
m' urrann úais amra:
ní chuinngim daíne
ná maíne marba.
Rop amlaid dínsiur
cech sel, cech sáegul,
mar marb oc brénad,
ar t' fégad t' áenur.
Do serc im anmain,
do grád im chride,
tabair dam amlaid,
a Rí secht nime.
Tabair dam amlaid,
a Rí secht nime,
do serc im anmain,
do grád im chride.
Go Ríg na n-uile
rís íar m-búaid léire;
ro béo i flaith nime
i n-gile gréine
A Athair inmain,
cluinte mo núall-sa:
mithig (mo-núarán!)
lasin trúagán trúag-sa.
A Chríst mo chride,
cip ed dom-aire,
a Flaith na n-uile,
rop tú mo baile.
