Near banbridge town in the county down |
| [00:08.41] |
One morning last july, |
| [00:11.00] |
From a boreen green came a sweet colleen |
| [00:13.88] |
And she smiled as she passed me by. |
| [00:16.28] |
She looked so sweet from her two bare feet |
| [00:19.10] |
To the sheen of her nut brown hair. |
| [00:21.40] |
Such a coaxing elf, sure I shook myself |
| [00:23.66] |
For to see I was really there. |
| [00:26.44] |
|
| [00:26.80] |
From bantry bay up to derry quay and |
| [00:29.58] |
From galway to dublin town, |
| [00:31.82] |
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen |
| [00:34.59] |
That I met in the county down. |
| [00:58.13] |
As she onward sped, sure I scratched my head, |
| [01:00.92] |
And I looked with a feelin' rare, |
| [01:03.37] |
And I say's, say's i, to a passer-by, |
| [01:05.95] |
"whose the maid with the nut brown hair"? “ |
| [01:08.44] |
He smiled at me and he says's, say's he, |
| [01:11.17] |
"that's the gem of ireland's crown. “ |
| [01:13.74] |
It's rosie mccann from the banks of the bann, |
| [01:16.33] |
She's the star of the county down". |
| [01:18.37] |
|
| [01:18.76] |
From bantry bay up to derry ouay and |
| [01:21.82] |
From galway to dublin town, |
| [01:24.16] |
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen |
| [01:26.83] |
That I met in the county down. |
| [01:39.97] |
At the harvest fair she'll be surely there |
| [01:42.57] |
And I'll dress in my sunday clothes, |
| [01:45.00] |
With my shoes shone bright and my hat cocked |
| [01:47.61] |
Right for a smile from my nut brown rose. |
| [01:50.30] |
No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yoke |
| [01:52.52] |
Till my plough turns rust coloured brown. |
| [01:55.40] |
Till a smiling bride, by my own fireside |
| [01:58.19] |
Sits the star of the county down. |
| [02:00.58] |
From bantry bay up to derry ouay and |
| [02:03.49] |
From galway to dublin town, |
| [02:05.90] |
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen |
| [02:08.59] |
That I met in the county down. |
| [02:32.62] |
From bantry bay up to derry ouay and |
| [02:35.03] |
From galway to dublin town, |
| [02:37.38] |
No maid I've seen like the brown colleen |
| [02:40.07] |
That I met in the county down. |
| [02:43.21] |
From bantry bay up to derry ouay and |
| [02:45.39] |
From galway to dublin town, |
