I'D Give You the Blood of My Heart

Phrase: I'd give you the blood of my heart Irish: Thabharfainn fuil mo chroí duit Pronunciation: hohr-hinn fwill muh khree gwitch I’d give you the blood of my heart Sacrificing all my very morrows To know you are happy, content, I’d accept all the days’ sorrows. For t’is the smile you would give to me That would forever flow in my veins To see sunshine always on your face My face would forever bear the rains. I’d give you the blood of my heart Forever knowing that you would be Living proof of love given, true A gift…only the lucky ones see. For t’is the smiling eyes of your face That would bring a smile there, to mine To know that you’re not in darkness Rather, there, in sunshine. I’d make all the sacrifices, needed, Knowing, that I would then part. In order to leave as a happy man I’d give you the blood of my heart
