Song for Ireland Lyrics
Song for Ireland - Mary Black (玛丽·布莱克)
Walking all the day near tall towers
Where falcons build their nests
Siver winged they fly
They know the call of
Freedom in their breasts
Saw Black Head against the sky
With twisted rocks that
Run down to the sea
Living on your western shore
Saw summer sunsets asked for more
I stood by your Atlantic sea
And sang a song for Ireland
Talking all the day with true friends
Who try to make you stay
Telling jokes and news
I'm singing songs to pass the night away
Watched the Galway salmon run
Like silver dancing darting in the sun
Living on your western shore
Saw summer sunsets asked for more
I stood by your Atlantic sea
And sang a song for Ireland
Drinking all the day in old pubs
Where fiddlers love to play
Someone touched the bow
He played a reel
It seemed so fine and gay
Stood on Dingle beach
And cast in wild foam
We found Atlantic bass
Living on your western shore
Saw summer sunsets asked for more
I stood by your Atlantic sea
And sang a song for Ireland
Dreaming in the night I saw a land
Where no man had to fight
Waking in your dawn
I saw you crying
In the morning light
Lying where the falcons fly
They twist and turn all
In you e'er blue sky
Living on your western shore
Saw summer sunsets asked for more
I stood by your Atlantic sea
And I sang a song for Ireland
