- Dolores Keane Galway Bay 歌词
- Dolores Keane
- It's far away I am today from scenes I roamed a boy
And long ago the hour I know I first saw Illinois
But time nor tide nor waters wide could wean my heart away
For ever true it flies to you, my dear old Galway Bay
Oh, grey and bleak, by shore and creek, the rugged rocks abound
But sweet and green the grass between, as grows on Irish ground
So friendship fond, all wealth beyond, and love that lives alway
Bless every home beside your foam, my dear old Galway Bay
Had I youth's blood and hopeful mood and a heart of fire once more
For all the gold the world might hold I'd never quit your shore
I'll be content whate'er God sent with neighbours old and gray
And lay my bones, 'neath churchyard stones, beside you, Galway Bay
The blessings of a poor old man be with you night and day
The blessings of a lonely man whose heart will soon be clay
It's all the Heaven I'll ask of God upon my dying day
My soul to soar for ever more above you, Galway Bay
