stephen james smith - synonymous with strength كلمات الأغنية

here in the north west
warmth from the gulf stream can be felt
rising up over errigal from mexico
which merges into the north atlantic drift

as the ocean circulates over time
meeting the arctic’s deep water freeze
we come to understand the impact of pressure
the ebb and flow leaves an impression

over time these conditions grew oaks
trees synonymous with strength
whose roots held this place togethеr
named this land doire, meaning oak grovе

the landscape also grows:
birch, holly, rowan and hazel
which host mystics intent on reprisal
so there must be a hymn for an old oak wood

where god fearing and godliness meet
we are busy adopting strays off the street

where we take the rough with the smooth
but can be too tough or sing to sooth
with our daunting but undamaged spirit
we know some truths to be inaccurate

even the fools here have an appetite
for coded language and find peace in an old adage

friction means things will eventually be smoothed out
with a broken voice we sing, some hear it as a shout

in praise of
in memory of

some say, a stitch in time saves nine
here traditions stay in the bloodline…

where faith healers walk among us
rebel poets with a giant causes
who sings of the terrorist, and of a peace keeping force?
some will go to h_ll, while some look for remorse

glaciers shaped this landscape
where a man_made border is ignored by nature
there’s something about the historical friction
which carved up this land, that might echo still in these valleys
maybe that’s what the church dove colmcille heard and tried to love
it’s said we’ve been troubled
which is one way of putting it

what would you say?
what would you sing?

that there’s still time yet
to live without regret?

and i know people who could talk
for days about their love for you

but let us sing instead;

of the gulf stream, the warmth we feel

and the almighty hope in remembering

an old oak tree can’t be felled easy

and it pleases me to know this
