harold delaney - inchigeelagh lass كلمات الأغنية

i greet you proud iveleary’s sons and daughters fair and true
-ssembled at the south-end club, old friendships to renew
this annual opportunity i’m loth to let it p-ss
ere i recite a tale to-night of my inchigeelagh l-ss

iveleary ah, how sweet your name rings in an exile’s ear
tho’i’ve not seen those heath clad hills those five and twenty years
t’was there i met my heart’s delight one sunday morn at m-ss
as i knelt in prayer in the chapel there with my inchigeelagh l-ss

she was modest as the cooing dove and gentle as the fawn
that roam over desmond’s storied heights, those highlands o’er gougane
no goddess fair in grecian days in beauty could surp-ss
my winsome rogue, my máirín óg, my inchigeelagh l-ss

like all the boys along the lee i joined a rebel band
and pledged myself to freedom’s cause for dear old motherland
an outlaw, i was chased from cork to keimaneigh’s famed p-ss
and forced to flee from erin’s lee and my inchigeelagh l-ss

before i from my native land for ever would depart
i slipped beyond the soldier’s lines to the darling of my heart
her pictures on the moonlit lake that mirrored as in gl-ss
the pattern queen of sweet keimeen, my inchigeelagh l-ss

over muskerry’s heights and shehy slopes a waning moon shone pale
as i clasped her to my heart that night in keimeen’s emerald vale
and when inside her cottage door her nimble form did p-ss
t’was the last i saw of my cailín breá, my inchigeelagh l-ss

i sped thro’ inniscarra’s groves before the dawn of day
to a p-ssage in a yankee ship that in queenstown harbour lay
the captain being a fenian bold my safety to comp-ss
and the ship set sail from gráinne mhaol and my inchigeelagh l-ss

oh, what became of máirín óg, iveleary’s fairest flower
she drooped as drops the may bloomed leaves, belated winter showers
the autumn trees had shed their leaves as they laid her’neath the gr-ss
my promised bride, iveleary’s pride, my inchigeelagh l-ss

were i beside the lee to-night i’d quickly find the spot
where máirín smile brought sunshine to her widowed mother’s cot
the smile that lit the eyes of my sweet cailín deas
still cheers my way, i will always pray for my inchigeelagh l-ss

iveleary, ah iveleary, far away across the wave
you own what i prize most on earth, my máirín’s moss-grown grave
my present habitation is in broadway, boston, m-ss
and the buachaill rua is always true to his inchigeelagh l-ss
