《The Star of Country Down》歌词

[00:00:00] The Star of Country Down - Barnbrack

[00:00:05] In Banbridge town in the county down

[00:00:07] One morning last July

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

[00:00:12] And she smiled as she passed me by

[00:00:15] She looked so neat from her two bare feet

[00:00:17] To the sheen of her nut brown hair

[00:00:20] Such a coaxing elf sure I shook myself

[00:00:22] To be sure I was really there

[00:00:25] From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and

[00:00:28] Galway to Dublin town

[00:00:30] No maid I've seen like the brown colleen

[00:00:32] That I met in the county down

[00:00:38] As she onward sped sure I scratched my head

[00:00:40] And I looked with a feelin' rare

[00:00:42] And I say's say's I to a passer by

[00:00:45] Whose the maid with the nut brown hair

[00:00:47] He smiled at me and he says say's he

[00:00:50] That's the gem of ireland's crown

[00:00:52] It's Rosie McCann from the banks of the Bann

[00:00:55] She's the star of the county down

[00:00:57] From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and

[00:01:00] Galway to Dublin town

[00:01:02] No maid I've seen like the brown colleen

[00:01:05] That I met in the county down

[00:01:10] At the harvest fair she'll be surely there

[00:01:12] And I'll dress in my Sunday clothes

[00:01:15] With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked

[00:01:17] Right for a smile from my nut brown rose

[00:01:20] No pipe I'll smoke no horse I'll yoke

[00:01:22] Till my plough turns rust colored brown

[00:01:24] Till a smiling bride by my own fireside

[00:01:27] Sits the star of the county down

[00:01:29] From Bantry Bay up to Derry Quay and

[00:01:32] Galway to Dublin town

[00:01:34] No maid I've seen like the brown colleen

[00:01:37] That I met in the county down
