The Kerry Dance - Stuart Burrows/John Constable[00:00:01]
Written by:James Lyman Molloy[00:00:03]
Oh the days of the kerry dancing[00:00:15]
Oh the ring of the piper's tune[00:00:17]
Oh for one of those hours of gladness[00:00:20]
Gone alas like our youth too soon[00:00:22]
When the boys began to gather[00:00:28]
In the glen of a summer night[00:00:30]
And the kerry piper's tuning[00:00:33]
Made us long with wild delight[00:00:35]
Oh to think of it[00:00:41]
Oh to dream of it[00:00:44]
Fills my heart with tears[00:00:45]
Oh the days of the kerry dancing[00:00:51]
Oh the ring of the piper's tune[00:00:53]
Oh for one of those hours of gladness[00:00:56]
Gone alas like our youth too soon[00:00:59]
Was there ever a sweeter colleen[00:01:12]
In the dance than eily more[00:01:14]
Or a prouder lad than thady[00:01:16]
As he boldly took the floor[00:01:19]
Lads and lasses to your places[00:01:22]
Up the middle and down again[00:01:24]
And the merry hearted laughter[00:01:26]
Ringing through the happy glen[00:01:28]
Oh to think of it[00:01:34]
Oh to dream of it[00:01:37]
Fills my heart with tears[00:01:39]
Oh the days of the kerry dancing[00:01:44]
Oh the ring of the piper's tune[00:01:46]
Oh for one of those hours of gladness[00:01:49]
Gone alas like our youth too soon[00:01:52]
Time goes on and the happy years are dead[00:01:59]
And one by one the merry hearts are fled[00:02:05]
Silent now is the wild and lonely glen[00:02:13]
Where the bright glad laugh will echo ne'er again[00:02:20]
Only dreaming of days gone by in my heart I hear[00:02:30]
Loving voices of old companions[00:02:42]
Stealing out of the past once more[00:02:45]
And the sound of the dear old music[00:02:48]
Soft and sweet as in days of yore[00:02:51]
When the boys began to gather[00:02:58]
In the glen of a summer night[00:03:00]
And the kerry piper's tuning[00:03:03]
Made us long with wild delight[00:03:05]
Oh to think of it[00:03:12]
Oh to dream of it[00:03:15]
Fills my heart with tears[00:03:17]
Oh the days of the kerry dancing[00:03:23]
Oh the ring of the piper's tune[00:03:27]
Oh for one of those hours of gladness[00:03:30]
Gone alas like our youth too soon[00:03:34]
