《Star of the County Down》歌词

[00:01:59] The Star Of The County Down - Various Artists

[00:01:59] Near Banbridge town, in the County Down

[00:01:59] One evening last July

[00:01:59] Down a boithrin green came a sweet cailin

[00:01:59] And she smiled as she passed me by.

[00:01:59] She looked so neat in her two bare feet

[00:01:59] To the sheen of her nut-brown hair

[00:01:59] Such a coaxing elf, I'd to shake myself

[00:01:59] To make sure I was standing there.

[00:01:59] From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay

[00:01:59] From Galway to Dublin town

[00:01:59] No maid I've seen like the fair cailin

[00:01:59] That I met in the County Down.

[00:01:59] As she onward sped I shook my head

[00:01:59] And I gazed with a feeling queer

[00:01:59] And I said, says I, to a passerby

[00:01:59] "Who's your one with the nut-brown hair?"

[00:01:59] He smiled at me, and with pride says he,

[00:01:59] "She's the gem of old Ireland's crown.

[00:01:59] Young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann

[00:01:59] And the star of the County Down."

[00:01:59] From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay

[00:01:59] From Galway to Dublin town

[00:01:59] No maid I've seen like the fair cailin

[00:01:59] That I met in the County Down.

[00:01:59] At the harvest fair she'll be surely there

[00:01:59] and I'll dress my Sunday clothes

[00:01:59] With my hat cocked right and my shoes shon bright

[00:01:59] for a smile from the nut-brown Rose

[00:01:59] No horse I'll yoke, or pipe I smoke,

[00:01:59] 'til the rust in my plough turn brown

[00:01:59] And a smiling bride by my own fireside

[00:01:59] sits the star of the County Down

[00:01:59] From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay

[00:01:59] From Galway to Dublin town

[00:01:59] No maid I've seen like the fair cailin

[00:01:59] That I met in the County Down.
