andy irvine and paul brady - lough erne shore lyrics

Loading...

one morning as i went a+fowling
bright phoebus adorned the plain
it was down by the shores of lough erne
i met with this wonderful dame

her voice was so sweet and so pleasing
these beautiful notes she did sing
the innocent fowl of the forest
their love unto her they did bring

it being the first time i saw her
my heart it did leap with surprise
i thought that she could be no mortal
but an angel that fell from the skies

her hair it resеmbled gold tresses
hеr skin was as white as the snow
her cheeks were as red as the roses
that bloom around lough erne’s shore

when i found that my love was eloping
these words unto her i did say:
“oh, take me to your habitation
for cupid has led me astray”

“forever i’ll keep the commandments
they say that it is the best plan
fair maids who do yield to men’s pleasures
the scripture does say they are wrong”
“oh, mary don’t accuse me of weakness
for treachery i do disown
i will make you a lady of honour
if with me this night you’ll come home

oh, had i the lamp of great aladdin
his rings and his genie what’s more
i would part with them all for to gain you
and live upon lough erne’s shore”
