hamilton harty - grace for light lyrics

Loading...

when we were little childer we had a quare wee house
away up in the heather by the head o’ brabla’ burn;
the hares we’d see them scootin’, an’ we’d hear the crowin’ grouse
an’ when we’d all be in at night ye’d not get room to turn

the youngest two she’d put to bed, their faces to the wall
an’ the lave of us could sit aroun’, just anywhere we might;
herself ‘ud take thе rush+dip an’ light it for us all
an’ ” god be thanked! ” she would say, — ” now wе have a light

then we be to quet the laughin’ an’ pushin’ on the floor
an’ think on one who called us to come and be forgiven;
himself ‘ud put his pipe down, an’ say the good word more
” may the lamb o’ god lead us all to the light o’ heaven! ”

there’ a wheen things that used to be an’ now has had their day
the nine glens of antrim can show ye many a sight;
but not the quare wee house where we lived up brabla’ way
nor a child in all the nine glens that knows the grace for light
