[00:35.94] | Near banbridge town in the county down |
[00:40.12] | One morning last july, |
[00:44.45] | Down a bóithrín green came a sweet cailín |
[00:48.72] | And she smiled as she passed me by. |
[00:53.05] | From bantry bay up to derry quay and |
[00:58.21] | From galway to dublin town, |
[01:02.14] | No maid I've seen like the brown colleen |
[01:06.60] | That I met in the county down. |
[01:28.69] | She looked so sweet from her two bare feet |
[01:33.07] | To the sheen of her nut brown hair. |
[01:37.34] | Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook myself |
[01:41.77] | For to see I was really there. |
[01:46.22] | From bantry bay up to derry quay and |
[01:50.96] | From galway to dublin town, |
[01:55.09] | No maid I've seen like the brown colleen |
[01:59.32] | That I met in the county down. |
[02:21.68] | As she onward sped, sure I scratched my head, |
[02:25.83] | And I looked with a feelin' rare, |
[02:29.63] | And I say's, say's i, to a passer-by, |
[02:34.73] | "whose the maid with the nut brown hair"? “ |
[02:39.02] | He smiled at me and he says's, say's he, |
[02:43.54] | "that's the gem of ireland's crown. “ |
[02:47.84] | It's rosie mccann from the banks of the bann, |
[02:51.85] | She's the star of the county down". |
[03:48.21] | At the harvest fair she'll be surely there |
[03:52.82] | And I'll dress in my sunday clothes, |
[03:57.37] | With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked |
[04:01.45] | Right for a smile from my nut brown rose. |
[04:06.03] | No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke |
[04:10.02] | Till my plough turns rust coloured brown. |
[04:14.55] | Till a smiling bride, by my own fireside |
[04:18.82] | Sits the star of the county down. |
[04:23.40] | From bantry bay up to derry ouay and |
[04:28.02] | From galway to dublin town, |
[04:32.24] | No maid I've seen like the brown colleen |
[04:36.41] | That I met in the county down. |
[04:40.76] | From bantry bay up to derry ouay and |
[04:45.30] | From galway to dublin town, |
[04:49.58] | No maid I've seen like the brown colleen |
[04:57.01] | That I met in the county down. |
