《Star of the County Down》歌词

[00:00:02] The Star of the County Down - The King'S Singers

[00:00:08] Near banbridge town

[00:00:09] In the county down

[00:00:11] One evening last july

[00:00:14] Down a bóithrín green came a sweet cailín

[00:00:17] And she smiled as she passed me by

[00:00:21] She looked so neat in her two bare feet

[00:00:25] To the sheen of her nut brown hair

[00:00:28] Such a coaxing elf i'd to shake myself

[00:00:32] To make sure i was standing there

[00:00:36] From bantry bay down to derry quay

[00:00:39] From galway to dublin town

[00:00:42] No maid i've seen like the fair cailín

[00:00:45] That i met in the county down

[00:00:53] As she onward sped i shook my head

[00:00:56] And i gazed with a feeling queer

[00:01:00] And i said says i to a passerby

[00:01:03] Who's your one with the nut brown hair

[00:01:06] He smiled at me and with pride says he

[00:01:10] She's the gem of old ireland's crown

[00:01:14] Young rosie mccann from the banks of the bann

[00:01:17] And the star of the county down

[00:01:21] From bantry bay down to derry quay

[00:01:24] From galway to dublin town

[00:01:27] No maid i've seen like the fair cailín

[00:01:31] That i met in the county down

[00:02:17] She'd a soft brown eye and

[00:02:19] A look so sly and a smile like the rose in june

[00:02:24] And you held each note from her auburn throat

[00:02:27] As she lilted lamenting tunes

[00:02:31] At the pattern dance you'd be in trance

[00:02:34] As she skipped through a jig or reel

[00:02:38] When her eyes she'd roll as she'd lift soul

[00:02:46] And your heart she would likely steal

[00:02:52] From bantry bay down to derry quay

[00:02:55] From galway to dublin town

[00:02:59] No maid i've seen like the fair cailín

[00:03:02] That i met in the county down

[00:03:10] That i met in the county down
