Craigie Hill歌词

Craigie Hill (克雷吉山) - Cara Dillon
It being in the springtime and the small birds they were singing
Down by yon shady harbour I carelessly did stray
The thrushes they were warbling
The violets they were charming
To view fond lovers talking a while I did delay
She said my dear don't leave me for another season
Though fortune does be pleasing I'll go along with you
I'll forsake friends and relations and bid this Irish nation
And to the bonny Bann banks forever I'll bid adieu
He said my dear don't grieve or yet annoy my patience
You know I love you dearly the more I'm going away
I'm going to a foreign nation to purchase a plantation
To comfort us hereafter all in America
Then after a short while a fortune does be pleasing
I'll cause them for two smile at our late going away
We'll be happy as Queen Victoria all in her greatest glory
We'll be drinking wine and porter all in America
If you were in your bed lying and thinking on dying
The sight of the lovely Bann banks your sorrow you'd give o'er
Or if you're down one hour down in yon shady bower
Pleasure would surround you you'd think on death no more
Then fare you well sweet Cragie Hills where often times I've roved
I never thought my childhood days I'd part you any more
Now we're sailing on the ocean for honour and promotion
And the bonny boats are sailing way down by Doorin shore编辑于2021/05/11更新
