Star Of The County Down歌詞

作曲 : Trad. Arr Crowley/Murphy
Near banbridge town in the county down
One evening last july ,
Down a bóithrín green came a sweet cailín
And she smiled as she passed me by.
She looked so sweet from her two bare feet
To the sheen of her nut brown hair.
Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook myself
To make sure I was standing there.
From bantry bay up to derry quay and
From galway to dublin town,
No maid I've seen like the fair colleen
That I met in the county down.
As she onward sped, sure I scratched my head,
And I looked with a feelin' rare,
And I say's, say's i, to a passer-by,
"whose the maid with the nut brown hair"? “
He smiled at me and with pride says he ,
"She's the gem of ireland's crown.“
Young rosie mccann from the banks of the bann,
And the star of the county down".
From bantry bay up to derry quay and
From galway to dublin town,
No maid I've seen like the fair colleen
That I met in the county down.
She'd a soft brown eye
And a look so sly and a smile
Like the rose in june
And you held each note from her auburn throat
As she lilted lamenting tunes
At the pattern dance you'd be in trance
As she skipped through a jig or reel
When her eyes she'd roll as she'd lift soul
And your heart she would likely steal
From bantry bay up to derry quay and
From galway to dublin town,
No maid I've seen like the fair colleen
That I met in the county down.
At the harvest fair she'll be surely there
And I'll dress in my sunday clothes,
With my hat cocked right and my shoes shon bright
For a smile from the nut brown rose.
No horse i'll yoke or pipe I smoke
Till the rust in my plough turn brown.
And a smiling bride by my own fireside
Sits the star of the county down.
From bantry bay up to derry ouay and
From galway to dublin town,
No maid I've seen like the fair colleen
That I met in the county down.
...
She'd a soft brown eye
And a look so sly and a smile
Like the rose in june
And you held each note from her auburn throat
As she lilted lamenting tunes
At the pattern dance you'd be in trance
As she skipped through a jig or reel
When her eyes she'd roll as she'd lift soul
And your heart she would likely steal
...
From bantry bay up to derry quay and
From galway to dublin town,
No maid I've seen like the fair colleen
That I met in the county down.
