Shanagolden Lyrics
Shanagolden - Margo
Written by：Margo
All the cold winds from the mountains
Are calling soft to me
The smell of scented heather
Brings bitter memories
The wild and lonely eagle
Up in the summer sky
Flies high over shanagolden
Where my young Willie lies
Do you remember darling
We walked the moonlit road
I held you in my arms love
I never let you go
Our hands they were entwined
My love all in the pale moonlight
By the fields of shanagolden
On a lonely winter's night
Then came the call to arms love
And the heather they were aflame
Down from the silent mountains
The Saxon strangers came
I held you in my arms love
My young heart wild with fear
Near the fields of shanagolden
In the springtime of the year
And you fought them all Willie
All through the summer days
I heard the rifles firing
In the mountains far away
I held you in my arms love
Your blood ran clear and bright
And you died by shanagolden
On a lonely summer's night
But that was long ago my love
And our son grows fine and tall
The hills they are at peace again
The Saxon stranger's gone
There's roses on your grave my love
There's an eagle in the sky
Flying high over shanagolden
Where my young Willie lies
Flying high over shanagolden
Where my young Willie lies
