Bridie Gallagher – Boys of the County Armagh

Lyrics:

Theres one fair county in Ireland

With memories so glorious and grand

Where nature has lavished its bounty

On the orchard of Erins green land

I love its cathedral city

Once founded by Patrick so true

And there in the heart of its bosom

Lie the ashes of Brian Boru

Its my old Irish home

Far across the foam

Although I’ve often left it

In foreign lands to roam

No matter where I wander

Through cities near and far

My hearts at home in old Ireland

In the county of Armagh

I’ve travelled through parts of this county

Through Newtown, Forkhill, Crossmaglen

And round by the gap of Mountnorris

And home by Blackwater again

Where the girls are so gay and so hearty

None fairer in Erin go Bragh

And where are the boys that can court them

The boys of the county Armagh

Its my old Irish home

Far across the foam

Although I’ve often left it In foreign lands to roam

No matter where I wander

Through cities near and far

My hearts at home in old Ireland In the county of Armagh

Lyrics

On Raglan Road on an autumn day I saw her first and knew
That her dark hair would weave a snare that I might one day rue;
I saw the danger, yet I passed along the enchanted way,
And I said, let grief be a fallen leaf at the dawning of the day.

On Grafton Street in November we tripped lightly along the ledge
Of the deep ravine where can be seen the worth of passion’s pledge,
The Queen of Hearts still making tarts and I not making hay
Oh I loved too much and by such by such is happiness thrown away.

I gave her gifts of the mind I gave her the secret sign that’s known
To the artists who have known the true gods of sound and stone
And word and tint without stint for I gave her poems to say.
With her own name there and her own dark hair like clouds over fields of May

On a quiet street where old ghosts meet I see her walking now
Away from me so hurriedly my reason must allow
That I had loved not as I should a creature made of clay
When the angel woos the clay he’d lose his wings at the dawn of day.

Carrigafoyle Castle Co. Kerry Ireland Nat Mon No 349 Full Works Survey Interior and exterior

Carrigafoyle Castle, Ballylongford,

Co. Kerry

The great outdoors

The castle built in 1490 is set within the flat landscape of the wider Shannon Estuary and is sheltered by the small island of Carrig only 200m to the north across the salt marsh which is inundated at high tide. The medieval Church of Carrigafoyle stands opposite the castle and is built in the same style.

Carrigafoyle Castle, built between the years 1490 and 1500, is considered one of the strongest of Irish fortresses. It stands on a rock in a small bay off the Shannon estuary, and its name is an Anglicisation of the Irish, Carraig an Phoill “rock of the hole”.

Now a listed National Monument, its battlements provide stunning views of the estuary and the most interesting feature of the building is the dock, which allowed boats to tie up safely. This was particularly important when in the 1500’s the O’Connor’s of Kerry held political power over the area which allowed them to “inspect” ships passing to and from the port of Limerick.

Lyrics

You approached me in the darkness
A figure I knew well
The silhouette was known to me
But it was far too soon to tell

With each step that you drew towards me
I knew you less and less
A creature of your likeness
With a kind of hollowness

And all that winter sun
Has ever gave to me
Was a couple hours of light
And a heat I couldn’t feel
So don’t you come to me
So bright and bold
You promised me the world
But you left it in the cold

And I was waiting for the heat to come
The light it touched my skin
I kept waiting for the heat to come
But the cold came creeping in

Like stepping out onto a frozen lake
Hid underneath the snow
I put my trust in something bound to break
But how could I have known

And all that winter sun
Has ever gave to me
Was a couple hours of light
And a heat I couldn’t feel
So don’t you come to me
So bright and bold
You promised me the world
But you left it in the cold

And I’ve been blinded by sunshine
And oh I hate how sweet the world has seemed
Bathed in your cold light

And all that winter sun
Has ever gave to me
Was a couple hours of light
And a heat I couldn’t feel
So don’t you come to me
So bright and bold
You promised me the world
But you left it in the cold

And all that winter sun
Has ever gave to me
Was a couple hours of light
And a heat I couldn’t feel
So don’t you come to me
So bright and bold
You promised me the world
But you left it in the cold
