《Moonlight in Mayo/Wild Colonial Boy/Lovely Leitrim》歌词

[00:00:00] Moonlight in Mayo/Wild Colonial Boy/Lovely Leitrim - Tony Stevens

[00:00:16] If you ever go across the sea to Ireland

[00:00:23] Then maybe at the closing of your day

[00:00:29] You will sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh

[00:00:38] And see the sun go down on Galway Bay

[00:00:46] Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream

[00:00:51] The women in the meadows making hay

[00:00:57] And to sit beside a turf fire in the cabin

[00:01:05] And watch the barefoot gossoons at their play

[00:01:12] For the breezes blowing over the seas from Ireland

[00:01:19] Are perfumed by the heather as they blow

[00:01:24] And the women in the uplands diggin' prates

[00:01:33] Speak a language that the strangers do not know

[00:01:40] For the strangers came and tried to teach us their way

[00:01:46] They scorned us just for being what we are

[00:01:52] But they might as well go chasing after moonbeams

[00:02:01] Or light a penny candle from a star

[00:02:11] And if there is going to be a life hereafter

[00:02:18] And somehow I am sure there's going to be

[00:02:24] I will ask my God to let me make my heaven

[00:02:34] In that dear land across the Irish sea
