The Winding River Roe歌词

[00:00.63]
[00:11.10]Some poets sing of a noble king
[00:21.06]Or of a sweetheart fair
[00:27.65]Some tell a tale of ships that sail
[00:37.40]With treasures rich and rare
[00:43.87]But my humble pen still drifts again
[00:53.37]To scenes of long ago
[00:59.87]Across the sea to the Benedy
[01:08.99]And the winding river roe
[01:17.16]
[01:17.41]Right well do I remember now
[01:24.66]Those happy childhood days
[01:31.41]And the times I had when just a lad
[01:39.53]On Carn's lovely braes
[01:45.90]And when my mind is thus inclined
[01:54.15]No other joys I know
[02:00.65]For my heart remains
[02:05.09]On the verdant plains
[02:09.59]Near the winding river roe
[02:18.41]
[02:18.66]Benbradagh's crown o'er Dungiven town
[02:27.66]Is still within my view
[02:33.98]And the Benedy glen I worshiped then
[02:41.98]Still lives in memory too
[02:48.35]The beautiful scene of Cashel Green
[02:56.23]Still haunts wherever I go
[03:03.23]And in all my dreams
[03:07.98]I see it seems
[03:12.60]The winding river roe
[03:21.35]
[03:21.60]If fortunes smiles on me awhile
[03:30.10]I would cross the sea again
[03:36.97]And all these years of toil and tears
[03:46.10]Will be forgotten then
[03:53.35]And when at last my life has passed
[04:02.60]Contentedly I'll go
[04:09.72]Across the sea
[04:15.22]To the Benedy
[04:19.72]And the winding river roe
