liam o'flynn - after aughrim's great disaster كلمات الأغنية

after aughrim’s great disaster
when our foe in sooth was master
twas you that first rushed in and swam the shannon’s boiling flood
and through slieve bloom’s dark p-sses
you led your gallowgl-sses
although the hungry saxon wolves were howling for our blood
and as we crossed tipp’rary
we raised the clan o’leary
and drove a creagh before them, as their hors-m-n onward came
with our spears and swords we gored them
as through flood and light we bored them
ah, but sean o’duibhir an gleanna, we were worsted in the game

long, long we kept the hill-side
our couch hard by the rill-side
the st-rdy knotted oaken boughs our curtain overhead
the summer’s blaze we laughed at
the winter snows we scoffed at;
and trusted to our long steel swords to win us daily bread
till the dutchman’s troops came round us
in fire and steel they bound us
they blazed the woods and mountains, till the very clouds were flame
yet our sharpen’d swords cut through them
to their very heart we hewed them
ah, but sean o’duibhir an gleanna, we were worsted in the game

here’s a health to your and my king
the sovereign of our liking
and to sarsfield, underneath whose flag we’ll cast once more a chance
for the morning’s dawn will wing us
across the seas and bring us
to take our stand and wield a brand among the sons of france
and though we part in sorrow
still sean o’duibhir an gleanna
our prayer is ‘god save ireland and pour blessings on her name.’
may her sons be true when needed
may they never fail as we did
for sean o’duibhir an gleanna, we were worsted in the game

- liam oflynn
