An Gleann 04:51 |
Dul síos an gleann tráthnóna aréir
D'imigh an scáth as tóin a 'tsléibh
An drúcht 'na luí ar bharr an fhéir
An saol uilig 'na gcodhladh
D'imigh an scáth as tóin a 'tsléibh
Gan baol ar bith go maidin
Dúrún an dúiche seo
Ó ghlúin go glúin
Lonad mar fhís sa cheo
Rún go ciúin
Sé cumhacht na gcrann fan áit
'Spreag na baird 'san fhilíocht
Na clocha 'tá coisbicthe fan árd
Thíos fá gleann dá locha
I dtobar i dúin
Gartan cholmcille
Sin go lá a'luain
Dul síos an gleann tráthnóna aréir
D'imigh an scáth as tóin a 'tsléibh
An drúcht 'na luí ar bharr an fhéir
An saol uilig 'na gcodhladh
D'imigh an scáth as tóin a 'tsléibh
An drúcht 'na luí ar bharr an fhéir
D'imigh an scáth as tóin a 'tsléibh
Gan baol ar bith go maidin
Dul síos an gleann tráthnóna aréir
D'imigh an scáth as tóin a 'tsléibh
An drúcht 'na luí ar bharr an fhéir
An saol uilig 'na gcodhladh
D'imigh an scáth as tóin a 'tsléibh
Gan baol ar bith go maidin
D'imigh an scáth as tóin a 'tsléibh
Gan baol ar bith go maidin... |

Fadó 05:17 |
Anois i dtús an fhómhair
Is mé smaointiú siar
Ar an laethe aerach'i bhfad ó shoin
'S mé a' súgradh le mo mhian
Bhí áilneacht aoibhinn ar a h-aghaidh
Is sólás in a croí
Ba sin fadó a bhuachaill
Ba sin fadó, fadó
I ndúbhlaíocht an gheimhridh
A casadh orm í
Go h-éascaí stuama 's muid linn fhéin
Thug sí domhsa lámh
Ghoid mé póg on bhainbíon óg
'S thit mé léi i ngrá
Ba sin fadó a bhuachaill
Ba sin fadó, fadó
A bhuachaill óig
I bhfad sul a bhfaca tusa 'n lá
A bhuachaill óig
I bhfad sul a bhfaca tusa 'n lá
Nar dheas dá dtiochfadh an trá sin
Ar seal beag liom arís
Ó bhéarfainn dí gach uile ní
'S mo dhílseacht léi go bráth
Tá'n saol seo cruaidh, tá'n saol seo corr
Tig scamall ar an ghrian
Ba deas fadó a bhuachaill
Ba deas fadó, fadó
A bhuachaill óig
I bhfad sul a bhfaca tusa 'n lá... |

A Mhuirnín Ó 04:59 |
A mhuirnín ó an dtiocfaidh tú na bhaile
A mhuirnín ó an dtiocfaidh tú liom
A mhuirnín ó an dtiocfaidh tú na bhaile
A mhuirnín ó
Bhí sé thíos i lár a' mhargaidh
Dól sé 's cheol sé ar rith an lae
Nuair a tháinig an oíche gan pingin ina bhríste
Is mairg nár ghlac mé comhairle na mná
Casadh orm é le heiri na gréine
An ógánach gleoite go folláin 's go beo
Nuair a thóg sé a hata agus labhair sé le gáire
Thit mé i ngra leis, chreid mé go deo
Bhí cnaipí airgid ar mo chóta
Is ribní síoda a bhfearr sa tír
Slabhraí óir is clocha luachmhar
Mheall mé le saibhreas é go fíor
Ní rabhas ag a nduine cé'n pháirt dén tír é
Labhair sé go uasal soinneanta só
Bhí 'n tiombá thart go raibh tiarna ina theaghlach
Ní raibh sé i bhfad bhí mé geallta do
Tá'n ceangal fada 's deacar a scaoileadh
Bhfearr i bhfad a bheith cinnte do
Níor ghlac sé i bhfad gur bhris sé mo chroí sa
A leoga ní seo mo scéilín ó
A 'gur shiúl sé síos i lár a mhargaidh
'S cheannaigh sé carda ar phunt nó dhó
Bhí an tádh ina rith leis, bhain sé an "lotto"
Anois bhéidh an chuideachta againn go deo |

Of This Land 04:44 |
How gentle was the breeze that surrounded the way
How loud the sea's roar on the four winds everyday
Sharing love, wounded gifts from ancient long ago
Together they closed in the circles we know
Will we treasure all the secrets with life's changing scenes?
Where our hearts were warm with love, so much love
Will the flowers grow again as I open out my hand?
Precious time, time for healing the beauty of this land
How soulful those words that confuses the way
How wild the mountains' stare as they guard our every day
Take for granted noble hearts in the golden age that's flown
Between us, recall on a strong road we've known
Will we treasure all the secrets with life's changing scenes?
Where our hearts were warm with love, so much love
Will the flowers grow again as I open out my hand?
Precious time, time for healing the beauty of this land |

Court to Love 03:51 |
Coming into certain lines of justice
A venue for a Venus and Eve
Take the balance of their beauty between them
A vain look can deceive
I'm only paying court to love
As deep as you can find
On the blind side of your heart
Safe inside your mind
When the length of days are dawning
It feels right in the light of understanding
There's always something bound to be a warning
When it's infinite it never meets
I'm only paying court to love
As deep as you could wish to find
On the blind side of your heart
Safe inside your mind
(Repeat)
I'm only paying court to love
As deep as you could wish to find
On the blind side of your heart
Safe inside, safe inside your mind
Court to love... |

The Bridge of Tears 04:00 |
The mist has cleared from Muckish Hill
Our parting coming nearer
The last embrace, the final touch
With nothing more to say
Nothing more to say
As silence fell around the bridge
Not a single word was spoken
A bitter breeze, a lonely stream
Echoed through the glen
Echoed through the glen
Droichead na ndeor
Agus droichead na gcaointe
Droichead na gcaointe
Agus droichead na ndeor
Ochón 's ó
Memories fade with passing age
In forlorn hope we wait for
Distant hills still haunt us now
Until the end of time
Until the end of time
Droichead na ndeor
Agus droichead na gcaointe
Droichead na gcaointe
Agus droichead na ndeor
Droichead na ndeor
Agus droichead na gcaointe
Droichead na gcaointe
Agus droichead na ndeor |

Autumn Leaves Are Falling 03:48 |
Autumn leaves are falling 'round us
Time to gather all those many thoughts
Of all the things that might have been
Or gained at such a cost
For some of us there's endless hoping
For some of us a craziness, too
Holding onto better reasons
Works for me and you, you know it's true
And when the stakes are higher
Never play with fire
Leave it alone
I wandered through a country churchyard
And wondered what kind of life they led
Walked into a castle ruin
Of gentry that had fled
For some of them had endless hoping
Some of them crazy, too
Holding onto better reasons
We'll never truly know
Those trees will tumble down on a stormy day
And those leaves will fade away, fade away
The autumn leaves are falling 'round us
I'm here to gather all my many thoughts
Of all the things that might have been
As the ground has turned to frost
Leaves are falling, autumn leaves are falling... |

Let Me See 05:06 |
Let me see generation times
Will we hear children singing rhymes?
Sweet memories gone by, they're gone by
Let me be wiser with my eyes
Let me see my love by my side
Let me see heaven
Lonely years of searching the wilderness
How this world can lead us all astray
Don't let me cry over colorless pictures
No more bitter winds
No more troubled seas
Just forgive me and let me see
Let me see my love, let me see
Let me see my love, let me see
Let me see generation times
Will we hear children singing rhymes?
Sweet memories gone by, they're gone by
Let me be wiser with my eyes
Let me see my love by my side
Let me see heaven
Crossing the room, I recognize the child in me
I'll close my eyes to release away all my fears
We silence the rose to see it blossom back again
Step by step we walk on
Word by word we talk on
Just forgive me and let me see
Let me see generation times
Will we hear children singing rhymes?
Sweet memories gone by, they're gone by
Let me be wiser with my eyes
Let me see my love by my side
Let me see heaven |
