Corries - The Castle Of Drumore Lyrics
The October winds lamentAround the Castle of Drumore,Yet peace is in her lofty halls,My loving treasure store.Though autumn leaves may droop and dieA bud of spring are you.Sing hush-a-bye loo, la loo, lo lan,Sing hush-a-bye loo, lo lan.Send no I'll winds to hinder us,My loving babe and me,Dread spirit of the Blackwater banks,Clan Owen's wild banshee.And Holy Mary pitying usIn heav'n for grace doth sue.Sing hush-a-bye loo, la loo, lo lan,Sing hush-a-bye loo, lo lan.Take time to thrive, my rose of hope,In the garden of Drumore.Take heed, young eagle, till your wingsAre feathered fit to soar.A little time and then the landIs full of things to doSing hush-a-bye loo, la loo, lo lan,Sing hush-a-bye loo, lo lan.The October winds lamentAround the Castle of Drumore,Yet peace is in her lofty halls,My loving treasure store.Though autumn leaves may droop and dieA bud of spring are you.Sing hush-a-bye loo, la loo, lo lan,Sing hush-a-bye loo, lo lan.
