《The Tern And The Swallow》歌词

[00:00:00] The Tern and the Swallow - Cara Dillon (卡拉·迪伦)

[00:00:19] When the Cuckoo is calling over woodland and valley

[00:00:27] And the Tern and the Swallow flies over our bay

[00:00:35] Then it's longing I'll be for the land of my father

[00:00:43] Where Bann and black water sweep down to Lough Neagh

[00:00:51] A home I have made in the land of the stranger

[00:00:59] And it's manys a long year since I left Derry quay

[00:01:07] Still I dream of the blooming and the glens of old Ireland

[00:01:15] Where Bann and black water sweep down to Lough Neagh

[00:01:26] And it'soon I must start and this is my last journey

[00:01:34] For my eyes they grow dim and my hair sparse and grey

[00:01:42] And it's soon I must follow the Tern and the Swallow

[00:01:50] Where Bann and black water sweep down to Lough Neagh

[00:01:58] I long for to see the dark waters of Lough Neagh

[00:02:06] And I long for to gaze on Slieve Gallion Braes

[00:02:15] And I long for to follow the Tern and the Swallow

[00:02:22] Where Bann and black water water sweep down to Lough Neagh

[00:02:50] And when I return to my native land

[00:02:58] In the spring I will hear the Cuckoo sing round Lough Neagh

[00:03:06] And I'll be out there waiting for the Tern and the Swallow

[00:03:14] Where Bann and black water sweep down to Lough Neagh

[00:03:22] And all I ask is a cairn in the land of my father

[00:03:30] Where Bann and black water

[00:03:34] Sweep down to Lough Neagh
