Wise & Holy Woman - Christy Moore[00:00:01]

I met a woman near the town where I was walkin'[00:00:20]

We both sat together down below the Yellow Furze[00:00:26]

She closed her eyes and started singing[00:00:32]

A song about the light that shines and the wonders of the world[00:00:38]

She sang of the forests on the high high mountain[00:00:44]

The pure clear water and the fresh air we breathe[00:00:50]

Of the bounty we gain from natures abundance[00:00:56]

And how the mighty oak tree grows from a little seed[00:01:02]

She had an everlasting notion[00:01:08]

The wise and holy woman had a neverending dream[00:01:13]

As she called out to the stars glistening on the ocean[00:01:19]

Shine a light shine a light on me[00:01:26]

She sang a song from the streets of Sao Paolo[00:01:34]

For the homeless street children that never learned to smile[00:01:39]

She sang of the shrine they built to Chico Mendez[00:01:45]

Where the plantation workers laid his body in the soil[00:01:51]

She sang of the greed we display before our altars[00:01:57]

The oil soaked cormorant drowning in the tide[00:02:03]

She sang of the halting site way out beyond Clondalkin[00:02:08]

Where Ann Maughan froze to death between the dump and the railway line[00:02:14]

She had an everlasting notion[00:02:21]

The wise and holy woman had a neverending dream[00:02:26]

As she called out to the stars glistening on the ocean[00:02:31]

Shine a light shine a light on me[00:02:38]

She sang of the eagle flying high above the mountain[00:02:43]

The otter that swam through rivers and streams[00:02:49]

Of the lilies that bloomed and the countless wild flowers[00:02:55]

And the rainbow that rose in the valley of tears[00:03:03]
