Manx Gaelic Rosary Prayers

This language is also known as Manks, Gaelig, and Gaelg.

This language was thought to be an extinct language that was spoken on Isle of Man, a British Crown Dependency. Although the last native born speaker died in the 1970's, there are new native speakers and the language is still used for communication. There is a primary school on the island that uses the language as the language of instruction. You can find out more about this at learnmanx.com.

Prayers that are not known in this language are shown in English until we have the complete prayer, at which time it will be shown in both languages.

Peaceful night, all is sleeping, only love is awake in this holy night. The child in golden hair Is watched by the holy couple so that it sleeps in peace, so that it sleeps in peace.

Peaceful night around the world, the stars are shining and are keeping watch over the child in golden hair, so that it sleeps in peace, so that it sleeps in peace.

The peaceful night watches everything "Peace on earth, God's goodwill" sounds out of the child's mouth. Let us thank him while he is sleeping in peace, while he is sleeping in peace.
