the orchard lyrics
when i was nine, in harvest time, i crossed the orchard wall
the moon was bright, and the apples ripe upon the ground did fall
we filled our sacks, and we made our way back
more adventures still to find

in an orchard ‘neath the comeraghs in the sweet dungarvan times

i crossed the orchard wall again when i was just thirteen
it was, i think, to be my first drink of cider and poitin
i remember well, it tasted like h-ll
and i hoped the pain would end soon

in an orchard ‘neath the comeraghs in the sweet dungarvan moon

whеn i was nineteen years of age i crossеd the wall with pride
my annie fair with the nut brown hair was walking by my side
our clothes came off, we tumbled and we kissed
all innocence was gone

in an orchard ‘neath the comeraghs in the sweet dungarvan dawn

and when i was twenty-one years old, i married annie there
the apple blossoms on the trees were better in her hair
and when the day was over, we danced away night thru’ the trees

in an orchard ‘neath the comeraghs in the sweet dungarvan breeze
now i’m forty-five, i am much alive and children i have four
three girls and one fine strapping son and i have hopes for more
i’ll teach them of what lies ahead, i have plenty to tell still

in an orchard ‘neath the comeraghs in the sweet dungarvan hills

i’m eighty-one, all children grown, and my annie’s long since gone
my days were good as well they should
but it’s time that i passed on
and when i die, i want to lie beneath the whispering trees

in an orchard ‘neath the comeraghs and the sweet dungarvan seas

and when i’m gone, may i be one with the air
and the land and the foam

in an orchard ‘neath the comeraghs in my sweet dungarvan home
