The Connemara Cradle Song |
On the wings of the wind o’er the dark rolling deep |
Angels are coming to watch o’er thy sleep |
Angels are coming to watch over thee |
So list to the wind coming over the sea |
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind blow |
Lean your head over and hear the wind blow |
Oh, winds of the night, may your fury be crossed |
May no one who’s dear to our island be lost |
Blow the winds gently, calm be the foam |
Shine the light brightly and guide them back home |
Hear the wind blow, love, har the wind blow |
Lean your head ovr and hear the wind blow |
The currachs tomorrow will stand on the shore |
And daddy goes sailing, a’sailing no more |
The nets will be drying, the nets Heaven blessed |
And safe in my arms dear, contented he’ll rest |
