Cara Dillon - The Winding River Roe lyrics
Some poets sing of a noble king All of a sweetheart fair Some tell a tale of ships that sail With treasures rich and rare But my humble pen still drifts again To scenes of long ago Across the sea to the Benedy And the winding river Roe Right well do I remember now Those happy childhood days And the times I had when just a lad On Carn's lovely braes And when my mind is thus inclined No other joys I know For my heart remains on the verdant plains Near the winding river Roe Benbradagh's crown o'er Dungiven town Is still within my view And the Benedy Glen I worshipped then Still lives in memory too The beautiful scene of Cashel Green Still haunts where ere I go And in all my dreams I see it seems The winding river Roe If fortune smiles on me a while I'll cross the sea again And all those years of toil and tears Will be forgotten then And when at last my life has passed Contentedly I'll go Across the sea to the Benedy And the winding river Roe |
