Clannad

It was on a fine summer's morning
The birds sweetly tune on each bough
And as i walked out for my pleasure
I saw a maid milking a cow

Her voice was so enchanting, melodious
Left me quite unable to go
My heart, it was loaded with sorrow
For the pretty maid milking her cow

Then to her i made my advances
"good morrow most beautiful maid
Your beauty my heart so entrances"
"pray sir do not banter," she said

"i'm not such a rare precious jewel
That i should enamour you so
I am but a poor little milk girl,"
Says the pretty maid milking her cow

The indies afford no such jewel
So bright, so transparently clear
I do not add things to my funeral
Consent but to know me my dear

Oh, had i the lamp of aladdin
Or the wealth that gold mines can bestow
I'd rather be poor in a cottage
With the pretty girl milking her cow.

Clannad Caislean Oir lyrics

Thart orainn
Reált geal san oíche
Tá'n fharraige chiúin
Agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth
An fharraige chiúin
Ina codladh sa ghaoth

Thíos sa ghleann an ghleann an cheo
Riocht na gréine i gCaisleán Óir
Tá'n fharraige chiúin agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth
An fharraige chiúin ina codladh sa ghaoth

Driocht a mheall na daoine roinn
Soilse geala i gCaisleán Óir
Tá'n fharraige chiúin agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth
An fharraige chiúin ina codladh sa ghaoth

Take me for a walk in the morning dew honey.
Take me for a walk in the morning dew today.

You can't go walking in the morning dew, my love.
You can't go walking in the morning dew today.

Listen, i hear someone moaning on.
I know i hear a man moaning on.

You didn't hear a man moan at all.
You didn't hear a man moan at all.

I know i hear my baby crying mama.
I know i hear my daughter crying mama.

You'll never hear your baby cry again.
You'll never hear your baby cry again.

You'll never hear your baby cry again.
You'll never hear your baby cry again.

Take me for a walk in the morning dew honey.
Take me for a walk in the morning dew today.

You can't go walking in the morning dew, my love.
You can't go walking in the morning dew today.
You can't go walking in the morning dew today.
