DECLAN GALBRAITH + Jim McCann - Carrickfergus (Hrad Carrickfergus)

I wish I was in Carrickfergus Where she is waiting, my rainbow's end I would swim over the deepest ocean Just to see her sweet smile again But the sea is wide and I cannot get over Nor have I the wings to fly I wish I knew a friendly boatman To ferry me back to my sweetheart's side I close my eyes and I remember The fields of green and flowers gold Where we would walk in sunlit meadows How my heart's longing to be back home But the sea is wide and I cannot get over Nor have I the wings to fly So I'll just dream of Carrickfergus And the day I said goodbye Now and forever my love and I So I'll just dream of Carrickfergus And the day I said goodbye Now and forever my love and I

Přál bych si, abych byl v Carrickfergus Tam, kde čeká, konec mé duhy Plaval bych přes nejhlubší oceán Jen abych,znovu viděl její sladký úsměv Ale moře je široké a já ho nemohu přeplavat Ani nemám křídla, abych ho přeletěl Kéž bych mohl potkat přátelského převozníka Aby mě přenesl zpět k mému miláčkovi Zavřu oči a vzpomínám na pole zelené a zlaté květiny kde bychom chodili po prosluněných loukách, Jak moje srdce touží být zpátky doma. Ale moře je široké a nemohu se dostat přes  Ani nemám křídla, abych ho přeletěl Tak že budu jen snít o Carrickfergus A ten den,kdy jsem řekl sbohem Nyní a navždy moje láska a já. Takže budu jen snít o Carrickfergus A ten den, kdy jsem řekl sbohem Nyní a navždy moje láska a já

  

Jim McCann - Carrickfergus (Hrad Carrickfergus) 

I wish I was in Carrickfergus
Only for nights in Ballygrand
I would swim over the deepest ocean
Only for nights in Ballygrand
But the sea is wide and I cannot swim over
And neither have I the wings to fly
I wish I had a handsome boatsman
To ferry me over my love and I

My childhood days bring back sad reflections
Of happy times there spent so long ago
My boyhood friends and my own relations
Have all past on now with the melting snow
So I'll spend my days in this endless roving
Soft is the grass and shore, my bed is free
Oh to be home now in Carrickfergus
On the long rode down to the salty se

Now in Kilkenny it is reported
On marble stone there as black as ink
With gold and silver I would support her
But I'll sing no more now til I get a drink
Cause I'm drunk today and I'm seldom sober
A handsome rover from town to town
Ah but I'm sick now my days are number
Come all me young men and lay me down
Come all me young men and lay me down.
