He fought at Casino—she's proud of his glory |
| [00:48.69] |
Yet sadly she sings "Siubhail a Rúin" all the day |
| [00:58.19] |
Oh, come home my darling, come home to Finae |
| [01:12.63] |
At long years have passed till she's nigh broken-hearted |
| [01:20.94] |
Her reel and her rock and her flax she has parted |
| [01:30.42] |
She sails with the wild geese to Flanders away |
| [01:39.39] |
And leaves her poor parents alone in Finae |
| [01:51.17] |
Lord Clare on the field of Ramillies is charging |
| [02:00.20] |
Behind him the Cravats, their sections display |
| [02:09.37] |
Beside him rides Fergus and he shouts for Finae |
| [02:31.65] |
On the slopes of La Judoigne the Frenchmen are flying |
| [02:40.71] |
Lord Clare and his squadrons the foe still defying |
| [02:49.07] |
Outnumbered and wounded retreat in array |
| [02:59.52] |
And bleeding rides Fergus and he thinks of Finae |
| [03:15.45] |
In the cloisters of Ypres a banner is swaying |
| [03:24.47] |
And by it a pale weeping maiden is praying |
| [03:35.69] |
That flag's the sole trophy of Ramillies' fray |
| [03:45.47] |
This nun is poor Eily, the flower of Finae |
