The Queen Of Connemara Testo

Testo The Queen Of Connemara

O! My boat can safely float in the teeth of wind and weather And outrace the faster hooker between Galway and Kinsale; When the black floor of the ocean and the white foam rush Together High she rides, in her pride, like the seagull through the gale O! she's neat , oh she's sweet, she's a beauty ev'ry line! The 'Queen of Connemara' is that bounding bark of mine. When she's loaded down with fish till the water lips the gunwale Not a drop she'll take on board her that would wash a fly away; From the fleet she'll slip out swiftly like a greyhound from her Kennel And she's land her silver store the first on old Kinvara quay O! she's neat , oh she's sweet, she's a beauty ev'ry line! The 'Queen of Connemara' is that bounding bark of mine. There's a light shine out afar and it keeps us from dismaying, When the skies are ink above us and the sea runs white with foam; In a cot in Connemara, there's a wife and wee one praying To the one who walked the waters once to bring us safely home O! she's neat , oh she's sweet, she's a beauty ev'ry line! The 'Queen of Connemara' is that bounding bark of mine.
