Traditional Songs E​.​P

Oh Danny Boy 03:17
Oh Danny boy the pipes the pipes are calling From glen to glen and down the mountain side The summer's gone and all the flowers are dying 'Tis you 'tis you must go and I must bide But come ye back when summer's in the meadow Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow 'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow Oh Danny boy oh Danny boy I love you so But when ye come and all the roses falling And I am dead as dead I well may be Go out and find the place where I am lying And kneel and say an ave there for me And I will hear how soft you tread above me And then my dreams will warm and sweeter be If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me And I will sleep in peace until you come to me
2.
Ombra Mai Fu 02:58
Italian: Ombra mai fu di vegetabile, cara ed amabile, soave più. English: Never was a shade of any plant dearer and more lovely, or more sweet.
3.
Are you going to Scarborough Fair? Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Remember me the one who lives there For she once was a true love of mine And tell her to make me a cambric shirt Every rose grows merry with time Without any seam or needlework And then she shall be a true love of mine And tell her to wash it in yonder dry well Yesterday holds memories in time Where no water sprung, nor a drop of rain fell And then she'll be a true love of mine Are you going to Scarborough Fair? Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Remember me the one who lives there For once she was a true love of mine
4.
Where Lagan streams sing lullabies There blows a lily fair The twilight gleam is in her eye The night is on her hair And like a lovesick lenashee She has my heart in thrall Nor life have I no liberty For love is Lord of all And often when the beetles horn Has lulled the eve to sleep I'll steal into her sheiling lorn And through the doorway creep There on the cricket's singing stone She spares the bogwood fire And sings in sad undertones The song of hearts desire
5.
Loch Lomond 04:19
By yon bonnie banks an' by yon bonnie braes Whaur the sun shines bright on Loch Lomond Whaur me an' my true love will never meet again On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond O ye'll take the high road, and Ah'll take the low road And Ah'll be in Scotland afore ye For me an' my true love will never meet again On the bonnie, bonnie banks o' Loch Lomond 'Twas there that we parted in yon shady glen On the steep, steep sides o' Ben Lomond Whaur in (soft) purple hue, the hielan hills we view An' the moon comin' oot in the gloamin' The wee birdies sing an' the wild flowers spring An' in sunshine the waters are sleeping But the broken heart, it kens nae second spring again Tho' the waeful may cease frae their greeting
6.
Lullaby and goodnight With roses bedight With lily's our spread Is my baby's sweet head Lay thee down and rest May thy slumber be blessed Sleepyhead Close your eyes I am right here beside you I'll protect you from harm You will wake in my arms Lay thee down and rest May thy slumber be blessed Lay thee down now and rest May your slumber be blessed (Sleep with no fear) Lullaby and goodnight You're mother's delight Shining angels beside My darling abide With roses covered With cloves adorned Tomorrow in the morning You'll rise again (To face another day) Lullaby and goodnight In the sky stars are bright Lullaby and goodnight In the sky where you are
7.
Well, I thought I heard the old man say (Leave her Johnny leave her...) It's a long, hard pull til your next pay day Leave her Johnny leave her, oh Leave her Johnny leave her For the voyage is done and the winds don't blow And it's time for us to leave her Oh the skipper was bad, but the mate was worse He will cut you down with a spike or a curse Oh the work was hard and the voyage was long The sea was high and the gales were strong Ah well, now it’s time for to say goodbye Those pilings they are drawing nigh
