Lyrics to Irish Ways And Irish Laws
Irish Ways And Irish Laws Video:
I Once upon a time there was Irish ways and Irish laws, Villages of Irish blood Waking to the morning, Waking to the morning II Then the Vikings came around, Turned us up and turned us down, Started building boats and towns. Try to change our living, try to change our living. III Cromwell and his soldiers came, Started centuries of shame, but they couldn't make us turn. We are the river flowing, We are the river flowing. IV Again, again the soldiers came, Burnt our houses, stole our grain, Shot the farmers in the fields, Working for a living, Working for a living. V Eight hundred years we have been down. The secret of the water sound Has kept the spirit of a man Above the pain descending, Above the pain descending. VI Today the struggle carries on. I wonder will I live so long To see the gates being opened up To a people and their freedom, a people and their freedom. --------------------------------------------- Dieses Lied handelt von den Jahrhunderten lang währenden Angriffen, denen Irland ausgesetzt war. Immer wieder wurde das Land von Fremden vereinnahmt, die dann versuchten zu bestimmen, was richtig und was falsch ist. Doch was immer auch kam, die Iren blieben ihren Wegen, ihren Gedanken treu und so wird es immer bleiben.
