[ti:the wind that shakes the barley]
[ar:ann`sannat]
[00:38.80]I  sat  within  a  valley  green
[00:44.16]I  sat  me  with  my  true  love
[00:48.55]And  sad  heart  strove  to  choose  between
[00:53.11]The  old  love  and  the  new  love
[00:57.86]The  old  for  her,the  new  that  made
[01:02.38]Me  think  on  Ireland  dearly
[01:07.22]and  soft  the  wind  blew  down  the  glade
[01:12.03]that  shook  the  golden  barley
[01:16.70]Twas  hard  the  woeful  words  to  frame
[01:21.53]To  break  the  ties  that  bound  us
[01:26.21]But  harder  still  to  bear  the  shame
[01:31.05]Of  foreign  chains  around  us
[01:35.83]And  so  I  said,"The  mountain  glen
[01:40.45]I'll  seek  at  morning  early
[01:45.08]And  join  the  brave  United  Men
[01:49.84]While  soft  winds  shook  the  barley"
[01:54.70]Twas  sad  I  kissed  away  her  tears
[01:59.55]Her  arms  around  me  flinging
[02:04.10]And  then  I  hear  that  faithful  shot
[02:09.18]From  out  the  wildwood  ringing
[02:13.63]A  bullet  pierced  my  true  love's  breast
[02:18.16]In  life  young  spring  so  early
[02:22.90]And  on  my  breast  in  blood  she  died
[02:27.68]While  soft  winds  shook  the  barley
[03:09.19]I  bore  her  to  some  mountain  stream
[03:14.48]And  many's  the  summer  blossom
[03:18.72]I  placed  with  branches  soft  and  green
[03:23.88]About  her  gore-stained  bosom
[03:28.24]I  wept  and  kissed  her  clay-cold  corpse
[03:32.92]Then  rushed  o'er  vale  and  valley
[03:37.69]My  vengeance  on  the  foe  to  wreak
[03:42.59]While  soft  winds  shook  the  barley
[03:47.26]Twas  blood  for  blood  without  remorse
[03:51.70]I've  taken  at  Oulart  Hollow
[03:56.25]I've  placed  my  true  love's  clay-cold  corpse
[04:00.97]Where  I  full  soon  may  follow
[04:05.31]Around  her  grave  I  wander  drear
[04:09.82]Noon,night  and  morning  early
[04:14.39]With  breaking  heart  when  e'er  I  hear
[04:18.89]The  wind  that  shakes  the  barley
