lirik lagu the sea around us – dominic behan
[verse 1]
they say that the lakes of k!llarney are fair
no stream like the liffey could ever compare
if it’s water you want you’ll find nothing so rare
as the stuff that’s made down by the ocean
[chorus]
the sea, oh the sea, is the grá geal mo chroí
long may it stay between england me
it’s a sure guarantee that some hour we’ll be free
oh thank god we’re surrounded by water
[verse 2]
tom moore made his “waters” meet fame and renown
a great lover of anything dressed in a crown
in brandy the bandy oul’ saxon he’d drown
and throw ne’er a one into the ocean
[chorus]
the sea, oh the sea, is the grá geal mo chroí
long may it stay between england me
it’s one sure guarantee that some hour we’ll be free
oh thank god we’re surrounded by water
[verse 3]
the scots have their whisky, the welsh have their speech
their poets are paid about tenpence a week
provided no hard words on england they speak
oh lord what a price for devotion
[chorus]
the sea, oh the sea, is the grá geal mo chroí
long may it stay between england me
it’s a sure guarantee that some hour we’ll be free
oh thank god we’re surrounded by water
[verse 4]
two foreign old monarchs in battle did join
each wanting his head on the back of a coin
if the irish had sense they’d drown both in the boyne
and partition throw into the ocean
[chorus]
the sea, oh the sea, is the grá geal mo chroí
long may it stay between england me
it’s one sure guarantee that some hour we’ll be free
oh thank god we’re surrounded by water
[verse 5]
the danes came to ireland with nothing to do
but dream of the plundered oul’ irish they slew
“you will in your viking” says brian boru
as he pushed them back into the ocean
[chorus]
the sea, oh the sea, is the grá geal mo chroí
long may it stay between england me
it’s one sure guarantee that some hour we’ll be free
oh thank god we’re surrounded by water
