《Star Of County Down(Live)》歌词

[00:00:00] Star Of County Down - The High Kings

[00:00:39] Near Banbridge town in the county down

[00:00:41] One evening last July

[00:00:42] Down a bóithrín green came a sweet cailín

[00:00:45] And she smiled as she passed me by

[00:00:46] She looked so neat in her two bare feet

[00:00:48] To the sheen of her nut brown hair

[00:00:50] Such a coaxing elf I'd to shake myself

[00:00:52] To make sure I was standing there

[00:00:53] From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay

[00:00:55] From Galway to Dublin town

[00:00:57] No maid I've seen like the fair cailín

[00:00:59] That I met in the county down

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

[00:01:02] And I gazed with a feeling queer

[00:01:04] And I said says I to a passerby

[00:01:06] Who's your one with the nut brown hair

[00:01:08] He smiled at me and with pride says he

[00:01:10] She's the gem of old Ireland's crown

[00:01:11] Young Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann

[00:01:13] And the star of the county down

[00:01:15] From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay

[00:01:17] From Galway to Dublin town

[00:01:18] No maid I've seen like the fair cailín

[00:01:21] That I met in the county down

[00:01:22] She'd a soft brown eye and

[00:01:24] A look so sly and a smile like the rose in june

[00:01:26] And you held each note from her auburn throat

[00:01:28] As she lilted lamenting tunes

[00:01:30] At the pattern dance you'd be in trance

[00:01:31] As she skipped through a jig or reel

[00:01:34] When her eyes she'd roll as she'd lift soul

[00:01:36] And your heart she would likely steal

[00:01:38] From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay

[00:01:40] From Galway to Dublin town

[00:01:42] No maid I've seen like the fair cailín

[00:01:44] That I met in the county down

[00:01:45] At the harvest fair she'll be surely there

[00:01:47] And I'll dress my Sunday clothes

[00:01:49] With my hat cocked right

[00:01:50] And my shoes shon bright

[00:01:51] For a smile from the nut brown rose

[00:01:53] No horse I'll yoke or pipe I smoke

[00:01:55] 'Til the rust in my plough turn brown

[00:01:56] And a smiling bride by my own fireside

[00:01:58] Sits the star of the county down

[00:02:00] From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay

[00:02:03] From Galway to Dublin town

[00:02:04] No maid I've seen like the fair cailín

[00:02:06] That I met in the county down

[00:02:17] She'd a soft brown eye and

[00:02:19] A look so sly and a smile like the rose in june

[00:02:21] And you held each note from her auburn throat

[00:02:24] As she lilted lamenting tunes

[00:02:25] At the pattern dance you'd be in trance

[00:02:27] As she skipped through a jig or reel

[00:02:30] When her eyes she'd roll as she'd lift soul

[00:02:32] And your heart she would likely steal

[00:02:49] From Bantry Bay down to Derry Quay

[00:02:51] From Galway to Dublin town

[00:02:52] No maid I've seen like the fair cailín

[00:02:55] That I met in the county down

[00:02:56] Near Banbridge town in the county down
