《The Star of the County Down》歌词

[00:00:00] The Star of the County Down - Frank Patterson

[00:00:05] Near Banbridge town in the County Down

[00:00:08] One morning in July

[00:00:10] Down a boreen green came a sweet colleen

[00:00:13] And she smiled as she passed me by

[00:00:16] She looked so sweet from her two white feet

[00:00:18] To the sheen of her nut-brown hair

[00:00:21] Such a coaxing elf I'd to shake myself

[00:00:23] To make sure I was standing there

[00:00:26] From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay

[00:00:29] And from Galway to Dublin town

[00:00:31] No maid I've seen like the sweet colleen

[00:00:34] That I met in the County Down

[00:00:42] As she onward sped I shook my head

[00:00:45] And I gazed with a feeling rare

[00:00:47] And I said says I to a passerby

[00:00:50] "Who's the maid with the nut-brown hair "

[00:00:52] He smiled at me and with pride says he

[00:00:55] "That's the gem of Ireland's crown

[00:00:58] She's young Rosie McCann

[00:00:59] From the banks of the Bann

[00:01:00] She's the star of the County Down "

[00:01:03] From bantry bay up to derry quay and

[00:01:06] From galway to dublin town

[00:01:08] No maid I've seen like the brown colleen

[00:01:11] That I met in the county down

[00:01:24] At the harvest fair she'll be surely there

[00:01:27] And I'll dress in my sunday clothes

[00:01:29] With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked

[00:01:32] Right for a smile from my nut brown rose

[00:01:34] No pipe I'll smoke no horse I'll yoke

[00:01:37] Till my plough turns rust coloured brown

[00:01:40] Till a smiling bride by my own fireside

[00:01:42] Sits the star of the county down

[00:01:45] From bantry bay up to derry ouay and

[00:01:48] From galway to dublin town

[00:01:50] No maid I've seen like the brown colleen

[00:01:56] That I met in the county down
