《St. Brendan’s Voyage》歌词

[00:00:02] St Brendan's Voyage - Christy Moore
[00:00:17] A boat sailed out of Brandon in the year of 501
[00:00:21] 'Twas a damp and dirty mornin' Brendan's voyage it bega
[00:00:26] Tired of thinnin' turnips and cuttin' curley kale
[00:00:29] When he got back from the creamery he hoisted up the sail
[00:00:33] He ploughed a lonely furrow to the north south east and west
[00:00:38] Of all the navigators St Brendan was the best
[00:00:42] When he ran out of candles he was forced to make a stop
[00:00:45] He tied up in Long Island and put America on the map
[00:00:50] Did you know that Honolulu was found by a Kerryman
[00:00:54] Who went on to find Australia then China and Japan
[00:00:58] When he was touchin' 70 he began to miss the crack
[00:01:02] Turnin' to his albatross he sez "I'm headin' back"
[00:01:06] "Is it right or left for Gibraltar"
[00:01:11] "What tack do I take for Mizen Head "
[00:01:14] "I'd love to settle down near Ventry Harbour"
[00:01:18] St Brendan to his albatross he said
[00:01:23] To make it fast he bent the mast and built up mighty steam
[00:01:27] Around Terra del Fuego and up the warm Gulf Stream
[00:01:31] He crossed the last horizon Mt Brandon came in sight
[00:01:35] And when he cleared the customs into Dingle for the night
[00:01:39] When he got the Cordon Bleu he went to douse the drought
[00:01:43] He headed west to Kruger's* to murder pints of stout
[00:01:47] Around by Ballyferriter and up the Conor Pass
[00:01:52] He freewheeled into Brandon the saint was home at last
[00:01:56] "Is it right or left for Gibraltar"
[00:02:00] "What tack do I take for Mizen Head "
[00:02:04] "I'd love to settle down near Ventry Harbour"
[00:02:08] St Brendan to his albatross he said
[00:02:12] The entire population came (281) the place was chock-a-block
[00:02:16] Love nor money wouldn't get your nose inside the shop
[00:02:21] The fishermen hauled up their nets the farmers left their hay
[00:02:25] Kerry people know that saints don't turn up every day
[00:02:30] Everythin' was goin' great 'til Brendan did announce
[00:02:34] His reason for returnin' was to try and set up house
[00:02:38] The girls were flabbergasted at St Bredan's neck
[00:02:42] To seek a wife so late in life and him a total wreck
[00:02:46] "Is it right or left for Gibraltar"
[00:02:51] "What tack do I take for Mizen Head "
[00:02:55] "I'd love to settle down near Ventry Harbour"
[00:02:59] St Brendan to his albatross he said
[00:03:03] Worn down by rejection that pierced his humble pride
[00:03:07] "Begod" sez Brendan "If I run I'll surely catch the tide"
[00:03:11] Turnin' on his sandals he made straight for the docks
[00:03:15] And haulin' up his anchor he cast off from the rocks
[00:03:19] As he sailed past Inishvickallaun there stood the albatross
[00:03:23] "I knew you'd never stick it out 'tis great to see you boss"
[00:03:27] "I'm bailin' out" sez Brendan "I badly need a break
[00:03:32] A fortnight is about as much as any aul saint could take "
[00:03:36] "Is it right or left for Gibraltar"
[00:03:40] "What tack do I take for Mizen Head "
[00:03:44] "I'd love to settle down near Ventry Harbour"
[00:03:48] St Brendan to his albatross he said
