Traditional: Carrickfergus (Arr. Pacey)

Текст песни Voces8 - Traditional: Carrickfergus (Arr. Pacey)

I wish I was in Carrickfergus
In Carrickfergus

I wish I was in Carrickfergus
Is fada ón áit seo go bailigh chuain
Sailing over the deep blue water
I ndiaidh mo ghrá geal
But the seas are deep love and I can't swim over
And neither have I the wings to fly
I wish I'd met with a handy boatman
Who'd ferry over my love and I

I wish I was in Carrickfergus
In Carrickfergus

Tá an chuach ag teacht is tá an teas ag tréagan
'san tart ní féidir liom é do chlaoi
's go bhfuil an leabhar orm ó shamain go féibear
's ní bheidh sé réidh liom go féile mhichíl
I'm seldom drunk though I'm never sober
A handsome rover from town to town
But now I'm dead and my days are over
Come Molly a stóirín and lay me down

I wish I was in Carrickfergus
Carrickfergus
