[00:01.80] The cold winds from the mountain are calling soft to me
[00:10.34] The smell of scented heather, brings bitter memory
[00:19.00] The wild and lonely eagle up in the summer sky
[00:27.23] Flies high o’er Shanagolden, where my young Willie lies
[00:40.32] I met him in the winter time when snow was on the ground
[00:48.76] The Irish hills were peaceful and love was all around
[00:56.91] Scarcely twenty one years old a young man in his prime
[01:04.78] We were married darling Willie by the eve of Christmas time
[01:17.80] Do you remember darlin’when we walked the moonlit road
[01:25.71] I held you in my arms love I would never let you go
[01:33.95] Our hands they were entwined love all in the pale moonlight
[01:42.35] By the fields of Shanagolden on a lonely winter’s night
[01:54.33] Then came the call to arms dear and the hills they were aflame
[02:03.12] Down from the silent mountains the Saxon strangers came
[02:11.21] I held you in my arms love my young heart wild with fear
[02:19.30] By the fields of Shanagolden in the spring time of the year
[02:27.69] You fought them darling Willie all through the summer days
[02:35.93] I heard the rifles firing in the mountains far away
[02:44.51] I held you in my arms love your blood ran free and bright
[02:52.40] And you died in Shanagolden on a lonely summer’s night
[03:03.40] Oh, but that was long ago dear and your son grows fine and tall
[03:19.65] The hills they are at peace again, the Saxon strangers' gone
[03:27.75] We’ll place a red rose on your grave by the silvery pale moonlight
[03:36.80] And we’ll dream of Shanagolden on a lonely winter’s night
