Letra de The Dawning Of The Day
One early morn as I walked forth By the margin of Lough Leane The sunshine dressed the trees in green And the summer bloomed againI left the town and wandered on Through fields all green and gay And whom shall I meet but a colleen sweet At the dawning of the dayNo cap or cloak this maiden wore Her neck and feet were bare Down to the ground in ringlets fell Her glossy golden hairA milking pail was in her hand She was lovely, young and gay She wore the palm from Venus bright By the dawning of the dayOn a mossy bank, I sat me down With the maiden by my side With gentle word, he courted her Asked her to be his brideShe said, "Young man, don't bring me blame" And swiftly turned away And the morning light was shining bright At the dawning of the day
