P.J. Murrihy - Lovely Old Miltown текст песни

Исполнитель: P.J. Murrihy

альбом: The Wonders of the West


My countrymen I take my pen to write a verse or two
And as I leave to cross the sea I'll bid a last adieu
Our slender boat is now afloat and the Foyle we're sailing down
And as I leave my heart it grieves for lovely old Miltown
Oppressive laws have been the cause of many a boy like me
Our land too small to serve us all we had to cross the sea
But our green shore is decked with ore kept back by England's frown
And each green field abundance yield near lovely old Miltown
Could I but see old Spanish Point or Ennistymon's plain
Mount Callan hill where oft I've been to join the old refrain
Her mountainside I've roamed with pride and plenty of renown
And I've been there at many a fair in lovely old Miltown
Many nights I've spent in sweet content with lads and lassies gay
And songs were sung by old and young before I went away
Americay lays far away and Philadelphia town
But I'll not forget the fond friends I left in lovely old Miltown
So fair thee well to hill and dale and to my comrades fair
And thrice farewell to my own dear girl I left in County Clare
Saint Patrick's day though far away the shamrock I will drown
And I'll think of three a gra mo chroi and lovely old Miltown
