Bridie Gallagher - Slievenamon lyrics

Artist: Bridie Gallagher

album: The Lights Of Home


Aloneall alone by thewave-washedstrand
And alone in a crowdedhall
Thehall it is gay and thewaves they aregrand
But but myheart is not here atall
Itlies far away bynight and byday
To thetimes and the joys that aregone
But Inever will forget the sweet maiden Imet
In thevalley near Slievenamon
Oh it was not the grace of her queenly air
Nor her cheeks of roses glow
Nor her soft black eyes nor her flowing hair
Nor was it her lily white brow
'Twas the soul of truth and of melting ruth
And the smile like a summer's dawn
That stole my heart away one soft summer's day
In the valley near Slievenamon.
In the festive hall by the star watched shore Oh ever my restless spirit cries
My love oh my love will 1 ne'er see you more
And my land will you never uprise
By night and by day 1 ever ever pray
While lonely my life flows on
To see our flag unrolled
And my true love to enfold
In the valley near Slievenamon.
