In Belfast 歌詞
In Belfast - The Wolfe Tones/Brian Warfield
Cast your eyes on a spot dear Lord
It's a spot that's close to hell
It's a burning boiling cauldron
Where people they must dwell
The sun won't shine in my backyard
It's hidden by the wall
The moon and stars just light the night
For the cat that claims the wall
In bel fast
There are fears of your neighbours
And strangers
In bel fast
There are songs to be sung
In bel fast
There are fears
Of war
And of peace
Tell me why tell me what can be done
The burning church
The burnt out bars
The crying child
The mother's sigh
The butchered fathers
The murdered sons
The burnt out homes
Those shameful laws
T'was the policies of
The government of England
Over centuries
To keep ireland
Divided by religions of God
For if ever the catholics and protestants united
They'd surely loose Ireland the
Jewel in the crown
The streets are dark and empty
No friendly face abounds
The soldiers with their blackened face
Go prowling through the grounds
The spiral reaches breaking point
The bard has played his tune
The night owl hides it's eary face
With the fading
Of the noon
In bel fast
There are fears
Of your neighbours and strangers
In bel fast
There are songs to be sung
In bel fast
There are fears of war and of peace
Tell me why tell me what can be done
The burning church
The burnt out bars
The crying child
On her way to school
The butchered fathers
The murdered sons
The burnt out homes
Those shameful laws
T'was the policies of
The government of England
Over centuries
To keep ireland
Divided by religions of god
For if ever the catholics and protestants
United they'd surely loose
Ireland the
Jewel in the crown
