Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan.

Siuil, siuil, siuil a ruin
Siuil go sochair agus siuil go ciuin
Siuil go doras agus ealaigh liom
Is go dte tu mo mhuirnin slan


Is that you go my darling goodbye.

Walk, walk, walk to ruin
Walk to benefit and walk quietly
Walk to the door and I escaped
Is that you go my darling goodbye

No. for one thing, you've left off the fadas ("accents") in the original, which can change the meaning of words.

Siúil, siúil, siúil a rún
Siúil go sochair agus siúil go ciúin
Siúil go doras agus éalaigh liom
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán

Go (walk), go, go my dear
Go gently and quietly
Go to the door and escape with me
May you go safely my love

Siúil, siúil, siúil a rúin
Siúil go socair agus siúil go ciúin
Siúil go doras agus éalaigh liom
Is go dté tú mo mhuirnín slán

Go (walk), go, go my dear
Go gently and quietly
Go to the door and escape with me
May you go safely my love

(socair - quiet,still, calm, steady...)
(a rúin - my love)

WARNING: Google Translate will give you an idea of what something is about with some gibberish thrown in for good measure but it will not translate accurately.

I didn't use google translate. I read a translation on a lyrics website & it just didn't seem to fit with the rest of the song.

It makes too much sense to be Google translate. However it is badly translated and entirely incorrectly translated in places.

Just for laughs, here's what Google does with it:

Walk, walk, walk resolutions
Walk quietly and silently held
Walk to the door and I escaped
You're my darling till farewell

Seriously folks, I copied and pasted it into Google translate and this is what I got! And I have just copied what I put it and what it spat out.......

The funny thing is, when I typed in the chorus manually, using correct spelling (including fadas), I got this:

Walk, walk, walk resolutions
Walk quietly and silently held
Walk to the door and I escaped
You're my darling till farewell

But when I copied and pasted the same version you did (which is the same as the OP used, I think), I also got what you did.

So one has to wonder what in the heck is going on at Google...not only is it giving shite translations in general, it appears to be making up definitions for misspelled words!
