letra de galway shawl - daoirí farrell
[verse 1]
at orenmore in the county galway
early. early in the month of may
i spied a damsel, so fair and handsome
and her beauty stole my heart away
[chorus]
she wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds
no paint nor powder, no, none at all
but she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it
and around her shoulders was a galway shawl
[verse 2]
we started walking, and started talking
until her daddy’s house came into view
and she said: ‘come in, sir, and meet my father
and play to please him “the foggy dew”
[verse 3]
she sat me down beside the fire
and i could see her daddy there, he was six feet tall
and soon her mummy smiling and the kettle boiling
but my mind was on the galway shawl
[verse 4]
i played “the blackbird” and “the stack of barley”
and “rodney’s glory” and “the foggy dew”
and she sang each note there like an irish linnet
whilst the tears like fountains down her cheeks they flew
[instrumental]
[bridge]
it was early, early, all in the morning
when i hit the road for sweet donegal
and she said ‘goodbye, sir,’ and i hugged and kissed her
but my mind was on the galway shawl
[chorus]
she wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds
no paint nor powder, no, none at all
but she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on it
and around her shoulders was the galway shawl
and around her shoulders was the galway shawl
and my heart remained with that galway shawl
