Bantry Bay - John McCormack (麦考梅克)[00:00:00]
As I'm sitting all alone in the gloaming[00:00:12]
It might have been but yesterday[00:00:19]
That we watched the fisher's sails all homing[00:00:24]
Till the little herring fleet at anchor lay[00:00:30]
Then the fisher girls with baskets swinging[00:00:35]
Came running down the old stone way[00:00:41]
Every lassie to her sailor lad was singing[00:00:46]
Ah welcome back to bantry bay[00:00:53]
Then we heard the pipers sweet note tuning[00:01:04]
And all the lassies turned to hear[00:01:10]
As they mingled with a soft voice crooning[00:01:16]
Till the music floated down the wooden pier[00:01:21]
Save you kindly colleens all said the piper[00:01:27]
Hands across and trip it while I play[00:01:32]
And the tender sound of song and merry dancing[00:01:38]
Stole softly over bantry bay[00:01:46]
As I'm sitting all alone in the gloaming[00:01:55]
The shadows of the past draw near[00:02:03]
And I see the lovely faces round me[00:02:09]
That used to glad the old front pier[00:02:16]
Some have gone upon their last logged homing[00:02:23]
Some are left but they are old and gray[00:02:29]
And we're waiting for the tide in the gloaming[00:02:40]
To sail upon the great highway[00:02:47]
To the land of rest unending[00:02:52]
All peacefully from bantry bay[00:03:02]
