The Bard Of Armagh - Tommy Makem[00:00:00]
Written by:Traditional Pd/Baird J[00:00:01]
Oh list to the lay of a poor irish harper[00:00:04]
And scorn not the strains of his old withered hand[00:00:14]
But remember his fingers they once could move sharper[00:00:22]
To raise up the memory of his dear native land[00:00:32]
At a fair or a wake I could twist my shillelagh[00:00:43]
Or trip through a jig with my brogues bound with straw[00:00:51]
And all the pretty colleens in the village or the valley[00:00:57]
Loved their bold phelim brady the bard of armagh[00:01:07]
Oh how I long to muse on the days of my boyhood[00:01:19]
Though four score and three years have flitted since then[00:01:29]
But it bring sweet reflections as every young joy should[00:01:38]
For the merry hearted boys make the best of old men[00:01:48]
And when sergeant death in his cold arms shall embrace me[00:01:58]
Then lull me to sleep with sweet erin go bragh[00:02:09]
By the side of my kathleen my young wife then place me[00:02:18]
And forget phelim brady the bard of armagh[00:02:31]
