May the Road Rise up to Greet Ye by Zoli Althea Browne Lyrics
"May The Road Rise Up To Greet Ye"
"May the road rise up to greet ye
May the wind recall your name
Cast ashore yon dreams and visions
Ere the snow, the wind, the rain
Say fare ye well yon hearth and castle
Cast the runes, ere heed the call
May the road rise up to greet ye
Gaze back once those bonny walls"
"Ford the stream, sail the loch
Treck yon moor heather bound
Breathe the land and the sea and the sky
Erin broods ere her children stray too far from home
So, she guides them back with tears from Irish eyes"
"May the road rise up to greet ye
Tell the wind your bonnie name
Heed the wall of banshees bidding
Through the snow, the wind, the rain
Say fare ye well, lads laugh as leaving
Lay your sword and armour down
May the road rise up to greet ye
Erin calls, to her you’re bound."
"Ford the stream, sail the loch
Treck yon moor heather bound
Breathe the land and the sea and the sky
Erin broods ere her children stray too far from home
So, she guides them back with tears from Irish eyes"
"Yes, she guides them back with tears from Irish eyes"
"May the road rise up to greet ye
May the wind recall your name
Cast ashore yon dreams and visions
Ere the snow, the wind, the rain
Say fare ye well yon hearth and castle
Cast the runes, ere heed the call
May the road rise up to greet ye
Gaze back once those bonny walls"
"Ford the stream, sail the loch
Treck yon moor heather bound
Breathe the land and the sea and the sky
Erin broods ere her children stray too far from home
So, she guides them back with tears from Irish eyes"
"May the road rise up to greet ye
Tell the wind your bonnie name
Heed the wall of banshees bidding
Through the snow, the wind, the rain
Say fare ye well, lads laugh as leaving
Lay your sword and armour down
May the road rise up to greet ye
Erin calls, to her you’re bound."
"Ford the stream, sail the loch
Treck yon moor heather bound
Breathe the land and the sea and the sky
Erin broods ere her children stray too far from home
So, she guides them back with tears from Irish eyes"
"Yes, she guides them back with tears from Irish eyes"
