Star Of The County Down - The High Kings[00:00:00]

Near banbridge town in the county down[00:00:00]

One evening last july[00:00:02]

Down a bóithrín green came a sweet cailín[00:00:04]

And she smiled as she passed me by[00:00:06]

She looked so neat in her two bare feet[00:00:08]

To the sheen of her nut brown hair[00:00:11]

Such a coaxing elf i'd to shake myself[00:00:13]

To make sure I was standing there[00:00:15]

From bantry bay down to derry quay[00:00:17]

From galway to dublin town[00:00:19]

No maid i've seen like the fair cailín[00:00:21]

That I met in the county down[00:00:24]

As she onward sped[00:00:26]

I shook my head[00:00:27]

And I gazed with a feeling queer[00:00:28]

And I said says I to a passerby[00:00:30]

Who's your one with the nut brown hair[00:00:32]

He smiled at me and with pride says he[00:00:35]

She's the gem of old ireland's crown[00:00:37]

Young rosie mccann[00:00:39]

From the banks of the bann[00:00:40]

And the star of the county down[00:00:41]

From bantry bay down to derry quay[00:00:43]

From galway to dublin town[00:00:45]

No maid i've seen like the fair cailín[00:00:47]

That I met in the county down[00:00:50]

She'd a soft brown eye and[00:00:51]

A look so sly and a smile[00:00:53]

Like the rose in june[00:00:55]

And you held each note[00:00:56]

From her auburn throat[00:00:57]

As she lilted lamenting tunes[00:00:58]

At the pattern dance you'd be in trance[00:01:00]

As she skipped through a jig or reel[00:01:02]

When her eyes she'd roll as she'd lift soul[00:01:05]

And your heart she would likely steal[00:01:08]

From bantry bay down to derry quay[00:01:10]

From galway to dublin town[00:01:12]

No maid i've seen like the fair cailín[00:01:14]

That I met in the county down[00:01:17]

At the harvest fair she'll be surely there[00:01:19]

And i'll dress my sunday clothes[00:01:21]

With my hat cocked right[00:01:23]

And my shoes shon bright[00:01:24]

For a smile from the nut brown rose[00:01:25]

No horse i'll yoke or pipe I smoke[00:01:27]

Till the rust in my plough turn brown[00:01:30]

And a smiling bride by my own fireside[00:01:32]

Sits the star of the county down[00:01:34]

From bantry bay down to derry quay[00:01:36]

From galway to dublin town[00:01:38]

No maid i've seen like the fair cailín[00:01:40]

That I met in the county down[00:01:43]

She'd a soft brown eye and[00:01:53]

A look so sly and a smile[00:01:55]

Like the rose in june[00:01:56]

And you held each note[00:01:58]

From her auburn throat[00:01:59]

As she lilted lamenting tunes[00:02:00]

At the pattern dance you'd be in trance[00:02:02]

As she skipped through a jig or reel[00:02:04]

When her eyes she'd roll[00:02:07]

As she'd lift soul[00:02:09]

And your heart[00:02:10]

She would likely steal[00:02:10]

From bantry bay down to derry quay[00:02:29]

From galway to dublin town[00:02:31]

No maid i've seen like the fair cailín[00:02:33]

That I met in the county down[00:02:36]

Near banbridge town[00:02:38]
