My Lagan Love 歌词

Where Lagan stream sings lullaby, there blooms a lily fair The twilight gleam is in her eye, the night is on her hair And like a lovesick lenanshee, she hath my heart in thrall Nor life I own, nor liberty, for love is lord of all Her father sails a running-barge 'twixt Leamh-beag and The Druim And on the lonely river-marge she clears his hearth for him When she was only fairy-high her gentle mother died But dew-love keeps her memory green on the Lagan-side And oft-times when the beetle's horn hath lulled the eve to sleep I steal into her shieling lorn and through the dooring peep There on the crickets' singing-stone she spares the bogwood fire And hums in sad, sweet undertone the song of heart's desire Her welcome, like her love for me, is from her heart within Her warm kiss is felicity that knows no taint of sin And when I stir my foot to go, 'tis leaving love and light To feel the wind of longing blow from out the dark of night
