Kelly from Killan / The Teetotaler LRC歌词

作词 : Damien Dempsey/Patrick Jude 作曲 : Damien Dempsey/Patrick Jude What's the news what’s the news Oh me bold Shelmalier With your long barelled gun from the sea Say what wind from the south brings his messenger here With a hymn of the dawn for the free ''Goodly news ’'goodly news do I bring youth of forth Goodly news shall you hear bargy man For the boys march at morn from the south to the north Led by Kelly the boy from Killane Tell me who is that giant with the gold curly hair He who rides at the head of the band Seven feet is his height with some inches to spare And he looks like a king in command ''Ah me boys that's the pride of the bold Shelmaliers Among our greatest of heroes a man Fling your beavers aloft and give three ringing cheers For John Kelly the boy from Killane Enniscorthy's in flames and old Wexford is won And the Barrow tomorrow we will cross On a hill ore that town we have planted a gun That will batter the gateway at Ross All the forth men and bargy men march o'er the heath With brave Harvey to lead on the van But the foremost of all in that grim gap of death Will be Kell the boy from Killane But the gold sun of freedom grew darkened at Ross And is set by the Slaney's red waves And poor Wexford stripped naked hung high on a cross And her heart pierced by traitors and slaves ’Glory Oh ’Glory Oh to her brave sons who died For the cause of long downtrodden land Glory oh to mount Leinster's own darling and pride Dauntless Kelly the boy from Killane
