o bonny portmore, i am sorry to see |
| [01:15.370] |
such a woeful destruction of your ornament tree |
| [01:25.960] |
for it stood on your shore for manys the long day |
| [01:35.900] |
till the long boats from antrim came to float it away. |
| [01:47.600] |
|
| [01:49.060] |
o bonny portmore, youre shining where you stand |
| [01:59.210] |
and the more i think on you the more i think long |
| [02:09.640] |
if i had you now as i had once before |
| [02:19.770] |
all the lords in old england would not purchase portmore. |
| [02:30.740] |
|
| [02:33.740] |
all the birds in the forest they bitterly weep |
| [02:43.240] |
saying, "where shall we shelter or where shall we sleep?" |
| [02:53.600] |
for the oak and the ash, they are all cutten down |
| [03:03.670] |
and the walls of bonny portmore are all down to the ground. |
| [03:15.790] |
|
| [03:19.080] |
o bonny portmore, youre shining where you stand |
| [03:29.470] |
and the more i think on you the more i think long |
| [03:39.620] |
if i had you now as i had once before |
| [03:50.520] |
all the lords of old england would not purchase portmore. |
