Letra de The Winding River Roe
Some poets sing of a noble king All of a sweetheart fair Some tell a tale of ships that sailWith treasures rich and rare But my humble pen still drifts againTo scenes of long ago Across the sea to the Benedy And the winding river RoeRight well do I remember now Those happy childhood days And the times I had when just a ladOn Carn's lovely braes And when my mind is thus inclined No other joys I know For my heart remains on the verdant plains Near the winding river RoeBenbradagh's crown o'er Dungiven town Is still within my viewAnd the Benedy Glen I worshipped then Still lives in memory too The beautiful scene of Cashel GreenStill haunts where ere I go And in all my dreams I see it seems The winding river RoeIf fortune smiles on me a while I'll cross the sea again And all those years of toil and tears Will be forgotten then And when at last my life has passedContentedly I'll go Across the sea to the Benedy And the winding river Roe
