It is often said that Spring roars in like a lion, and out like a lamb.

LYRICS ABAIR LIOM DO RÚIN (TELL ME YOUR SECRETS)
Maidín earrach tosaigh
Glan d'aghaidh le drúcht
Cuimhní i do síoltaí
Abair liom do rúin
Croise ag casadh
Óige is aosta
Bríd, chur síos do chlóca
Abair leo do rúin
Spring morning has come
Wash your face with dew
Memories in your seeds
Tell me your secrets
Looping crosses
Young and old
Bríd, lay down your cloak
Tell them your secrets
