[00:03.60] |
Song for Ireland |
[00:11.16] |
Walking all the day |
[00:16.02] |
Near tall towers where falcons build their nests |
[00:23.75] |
Silver-winged they fly |
[00:28.87] |
They know the call of freedom in their breasts |
[00:37.77] |
Saw Black Head against the sky |
[00:43.31] |
Where twisted rocks they run to the sea |
[00:52.08] |
Living on your western shore |
[00:57.34] |
Saw summer sunsets, asked for more |
[01:04.22] |
I stood by your Atlantic Sea |
[01:10.79] |
And sang a song for Ireland |
[01:20.96] |
Talking all the day |
[01:25.25] |
With true friends who try to make you stay |
[01:33.04] |
Telling jokes and news |
[01:38.94] |
Singing songs to pass the time away |
[01:46.24] |
Watched the Galway salmon run |
[01:53.17] |
Like silver dancing, darting in the sun |
[02:00.99] |
Living on your western shore |
[02:06.44] |
Saw summer sunsets, asked for more |
[02:11.86] |
I stood by your Atlantic Sea |
[02:19.35] |
And sang a song for Ireland |
[02:29.95] |
Drinking all the day |
[02:34.53] |
In old pubs where fiddlers love to play |
[02:41.07] |
Saw one touch the bow |
[02:46.93] |
He played a reel which seemed so grand and gay |
[02:54.60] |
Stood on Dingle Beach and cast |
[03:02.66] |
In wild foam we found Atlantic bass |
[03:09.43] |
Living on your western shore |
[03:15.48] |
Saw summer sunsets, asked for more |
[03:22.09] |
I stood by your Atlantic Sea |
[03:28.14] |
And sang a song for Ireland |
[03:38.70] |
Dreaming in the night |
[03:43.24] |
I saw a land where no one had to fight |
[03:50.54] |
Waking in your dawn |
[03:55.51] |
I saw you crying in the morning light |
[04:03.18] |
Sleeping where the falcons fly |
[04:11.17] |
They twist and turn all in your air-blue sky |
[04:18.82] |
Living on your western shore |
[04:24.14] |
Saw summer sunsets, asked for more |
[04:30.79] |
I stood by your Atlantic Sea |
[04:37.45] |
And i sang a song for Ireland |
