HOW TO SAY

How To Say – The Serenity Prayer in Irish Gaelic (VIDEO)

The main reason why people embark on the amazing journey of learning Irish Gaelic is because they want to strengthen their connection to their Irish heritage, but that’s not the only reason. There is a big part of the Bitesize Irish Gaelic community that learns the language thanks to its beauty or to learn more about the Irish culture.

People who want to know more about Ireland’s culture and history will learn the Irish language so they can better understand Irish literature, Irish music and Irish prayers. That’s why we decided to help them out and allow them to use our free tools to learn Irish prayers with the help of pronunciation videos.

We’ve created several videos for Irish prayers (that are available on our YouTube channel – link below the video) and today we’ll be teaching you how to say the Serenity Prayer in Irish.

How to say the Serenity Prayer in Irish Gaelic

Serenity Prayer | Paidir an tSuaimhnis
A Dhia,
deonaigh dom an suaimhneas
chun glacadh le rudaí
nach féidir liom a athrú,
misneach chun rudaí a athrú nuair is féidir,
agus gaois
chun an difríocht a aithint

A Dhia,
/Ah Yee-ah/
deonaigh dom an suaimhneas
/jo-nee dum on swev-ness/
chun glacadh le rudaí
/khun glok-ah leh rudy/
nach féidir liom a athrú,
/nokh fay-jer lyum ah ah-roo/
misneach chun rudaí a athrú nuair is féidir,
/mish-nukh khun rudy ah ah-roo noor iss fay-jer/
agus gaois chun an difríocht a aithint.
/ag-uss gweesh khun on jif-ree-ukht ah ah-hinch/

A Dhia,
/Ah Yee-ah/
O God

deonaigh dom an suaimhneas
/jo-nee dum on swev-ness/
grant me the serenity

chun glacadh le rudaí
/khun glok-ah leh rudy/
to accept the things

nach féidir liom a athrú,
/nokh fay-jer lyum ah ah-roo/
I cannot change,

misneach chun rudaí a athrú nuair is féidir,
/mish-nukh khun rudy ah ah-roo noor iss fay-jer/
the courage to change the things we can,

agus gaois chun an difríocht a aithint.
/ag-uss gweesh khun on jif-ree-ukht ah ah-hinch/
and the wisdom to know the difference.
