《Boys from County Mayo》歌词

[00:00:00] Boys from County Mayo - Coney Foley

[00:00:04] Far away from the land

[00:00:06] Of the Shamrock and heather

[00:00:09] In search of a living

[00:00:11] As exiles we roam

[00:00:13] Whenever we chance

[00:00:15] To assemble together

[00:00:18] We think of the land

[00:00:19] Where we once had a home

[00:00:22] These homes are destroyed

[00:00:24] And our soil confiscated

[00:00:27] The hand of the tyrant

[00:00:29] Brought plunder and woe

[00:00:31] The fires are now quenched

[00:00:33] And our hearts desolated

[00:00:35] In our once happy homes

[00:00:37] In the County Mayo

[00:00:40] Long years have since passed

[00:00:42] With our hearts full of sorrow

[00:00:44] The land of the Shamrock

[00:00:46] We left far behind

[00:00:49] How we would like to

[00:00:51] Go back there tomorrow

[00:00:53] To the scenes of our youth

[00:00:55] Which we still bear in mind

[00:00:57] The days of our childhood

[00:00:59] It's now we regret them

[00:01:02] They cling to our vision

[00:01:04] Wherever we go

[00:01:06] And the friends of our youth

[00:01:08] We will never forget them

[00:01:11] They too are exiled

[00:01:12] From the County Mayo

[00:01:15] From Galway to Dublin

[00:01:17] From Derry to Kerry

[00:01:19] In New York and Frisco

[00:01:21] And Boston also

[00:01:23] In Pittsburg Chicago

[00:01:25] Detroit and Toronto

[00:01:28] There are stout-hearted men

[00:01:29] From the County Mayo

[00:01:32] So boys cling together

[00:01:34] In all kinds of weather

[00:01:37] Don't show the white feather

[00:01:39] Wherever you go

[00:01:41] Be like a brother

[00:01:43] And help one another

[00:01:45] Like true hearted men

[00:01:47] From the County Mayo
