[00:00.00]Song For Ireland - Mary Black
[00:12.58]Walking all the day
[00:17.39]Near tall towers where falcons build their nests
[00:22.07]
[00:25.77]Siver winged they fly
[00:30.89]They know the call of freedom in their breasts
[00:38.08]
[00:39.02]Saw Black Head against the sky
[00:45.64]With twisted rocks that run down to the sea
[00:54.14]Living on your western shore
[00:58.83]Saw summer sunsets asked for more
[01:05.77]I stood by your Atlantic sea
[01:12.64]And sang a song for Ireland
[01:21.72]
[01:22.28]Talking all the day
[01:26.84]With true friends who try to make you stay
[01:34.72]
[01:35.53]Telling jokes and news
[01:40.34]Singing songs to pass the night away
[01:46.47]
[01:48.72]Watched the Galway salmon run
[01:54.97]Like silver dancing darting in the sun
[02:03.09]Living on your western shore
[02:07.98]Saw summer sunsets asked for more
[02:14.25]
[02:14.81]I stood by your Atlantic sea
[02:19.72]And sang a song for Ireland
[02:27.84]
[02:31.15]Drinking all the day
[02:35.84]In old pubs where fiddlers loved to play
[02:42.72]
[02:44.28]Someone touched the bow
[02:48.53]He played a reel it seemed so grand and gay
[02:57.29]Stood on Dingle beach
[03:01.11]And cast in wild foam we found Atlantic bass
[03:11.79]Living on your western shore
[03:16.87]Saw summer sunsets asked for more
[03:23.70]I stood by your Atlantic sea
[03:30.58]And sang a song for Ireland
[03:36.15]
[03:40.78]Dreaming in the night
[03:44.78]I saw a land where no man had to fight
[03:51.93]
[03:53.68]Waking in your dawn
[03:57.62]I saw you crying in the morning light
[04:05.46]
[04:06.76]Lying where the falcons fly
[04:13.08]They twist and turn all in you e＇er blue sky
[04:21.09]Living on your western shore
[04:26.09]Saw summer sunsets asked for more
[04:32.40]I stood by your Atlantic sea
[04:38.77]And sang a song for Ireland
