The Choice Is Mine 가사

Dubhdara All the clans of ireland Are bogged down in ancient fueds Donal Like the feuds your kinsmen once began Chieftan o'flaherty Donal! Dubhdara Yes! and so the queen of england Sees us and concludes We're too weak to fight her empire's plan And so my friend, we must put old claims asside And join as one, a course that's never been tried Chiefton o'flaherty We must, but how? That would call for trust No trust have i Dubhdara Nor i Chiefton o'flaherty You know, as i, How this work is done You have a daughter, And i have a son These two must wed And when there's an heir Then two warring clans Will at last be one Grace Father, i know well what kind of victory this shows Tell me, was my fate just sealed for me? If you do accept this marriage union they propose I must give up tiernan and the sea I fought so hard Dubhdara You are selfless in war Grace To carve a life that's mine Dubhdara Give yourself like a man Grace I love my land Dubhdara But this fight calls for more Grace Where do i draw the line? Dubhdara and grace Who'll sacrifice To become one clan? Dubhdara A man cannot A woman can Grace (spoken) Tiernan; please! (sung) The choice is mine But i cannot refuse It's cruel, the path We are now forced to choose Tiernan In the name of god! This you cannot do! Grace Tiernan - this must be But my love still is you Tiernan (spoken) Grace! you promised yourself to me! does that mean nothing to you? Dubhdara (spoken) Tiernan, it must be so. Grace In this time of war Two small lives must yield Tiernan! Our clan accepts - Let the bond be sealed
