My Land lyrics - Celtic Woman

How green are your valleys, how blue your great skies
Your mountains stand tall in their glory
Your rivers run free, the bright stars are your eyes
Your beauty is endless before me

For you are the song ever singing in me
And you are the heart ever true
For you are my land and you always will be
The voice ever calling me... home to you

When to your green valleys some day I return
When you lay your mantle around me
At rest I will be where the heart will not yearn
With my land to ever...surround me

For you are the song ever singing in me
And you are the heart ever true
For you are my land and you always will be
The voice ever calling me... home to you

For you are the song ever singing in me
And you are the heart ever true
For you are my land and you always will be
The voice ever calling me... home to you

The voice ever calling me...home to you

Siúil A Rúin lyrics - Celtic Woman

("Destiny" Version)

Siúil, siúil, siúil a rúin
Siúil go sochair agus siúil go ciúin
Siúil go doras agus éalaigh liom

I wish I were on yonder hill
'Tis there I'd sit and cry my fill
'til every tear would turn a mill
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán

Siúil, siúil, siúil a rúin
Siúil go sochair agus siúil go ciúin
Siúil go doras agus éalaigh liom

Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán

I'll sell my rock, I'll sell my reel
I'll sell my only spinning wheel
To buy my love a sword of steel
Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán

Siúil, siúil, siúil a rúin
Siúil go sochair agus siúil go ciúin
Siúil go doras agus éalaigh liom

Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain
I wish I had my heart again
And they may think I'm not complete

Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán

Siúil, siúil, siúil a rúin
Siúil go sochair agus siúil go ciúin
Siúil go doras agus éalaigh liom

Is go dté tú mo mhúirnín slán

Ride On lyrics - Celtic Woman

True, you ride the finest horse I have ever seen
Standing sixteen one or two, with eyes wild and green
And you ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch
I could never go with you, no matter how I wanted to

Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to

When you ride into the night without a trace behind
Run your claw along my gut one last time
I turn to face an empty space where you used to lie
I look for the spark that lights the night
Through the teardrops in my eye

Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to

Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to

I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to
Oh, I could never go with you
No matter how I wanted to

The Whole Of The Moon lyrics - Celtic Woman

(originally by The Waterboys)

I pictured a rainbow
You held it in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw the plan
I wandered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

You were there in the turnstiles
With the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon

I was grounded
While you filled the skies
I was dumbfounded by truth
You cut through lies
I saw the rain dirty valley
You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon

I spoke about wings
You just flew
I wondered I guessed and I tried
You just knew
I sighed
But you swooned
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

Unicorns and cannonballs
Palaces and piers
Trumpets, towers and tenements
Wide oceans full of tears
Flags, rags, ferryboats
Scimitars and scarves
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars

Yes you climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
Too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

How Can I Keep From Singing lyrics - Celtic Woman

My life goes on in endless song
Above earth's lamentations
I hear the trumpets sounding strong
That hails a new creation
Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear its music ringing
It ever echoes in my life
How can I keep from singing?

And though the shadows gather 'round
The endless song it giveth
My strength within and joy abound
The world of truth it liveth
Though dark the night and long the road
I hear the music ringing
And with such power and grace bestowed
How can I keep from singing?

No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to this rock I'm clinging
How can I ever come to harm?
How can I keep from singing?
Then sings my soul with love profound
A fountain ever springing
Deep from the earth how sweet the sound
How can I keep from singing?

I See Fire lyrics - Celtic Woman

(originally by Ed Sheeran)

Oh, misty eye of the mountain below
Keep careful watch of my brothers' souls
And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
Keep watching over Durin's sons

If this is to end in fire
Then we should all burn together
Watch the flames climb high into the night

Calling out, father, oh
Stand by and we will
Watch the flames burn auburn on
The mountain side, oh

And if we should die tonight
Then we should all die together
Watch the flames climb high for the last time

Calling out, father, oh
Prepare as we will
Watch the flames burn auburn on
The mountain side
Desolation comes upon the sky

Now I see fire
Inside the mountain
I see fire
Burning the trees
And I see fire
Hollowing souls
And I see fire
Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me

Oh, should my people fall
Then surely I'll do the same
Confined in mountain halls
We got too close to the flame

Calling out, father, oh
Hold fast and we will
Watch the flames burn auburn on
The mountain side
Desolation comes upon the sky

Now I see fire
Inside the mountain
I see fire
Burning the trees
And I see fire
Hollowing souls
I see fire
Blood in the breeze
And I hope that you remember me

And if the night is burning
I will cover my eyes
For if the dark returns
Then my brothers will die
And as the sky is falling down
It crashed into this lonely town
And with that shadow on the ground
I hear my people screaming out

I see fire
Inside the mountain
I see fire
Burning the trees
And I see fire
Hollowing souls
I see fire
Blood in the breeze

I see fire (fire)
And I see fire (fire)
And I see fire (fire)
And I see fire burn auburn on the mountain side

Tir Na Nog lyrics - Celtic Woman (feat. Oonagh)

Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Sha ta co ti oh nugga Tír na nÓg
Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Nug a Tír na nÓg

Come, my love, our worlds will part
The gods will guide us across the dark
Come with me and be mine, my love
Stay and break my heart

From the shores through the ancient mists
You bear the mark of my Elven kiss
Clear the way, I will take you home
To eternal bliss

Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Sha ta co ti oh nugga Tír na nÓg
Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Nug a Tír na nÓg
Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Sha ta co ti oh nugga Tír na nÓg
Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Nug a Tír na nÓg
Tír na nÓg, oh
Come beyond the ancient fog
Tír na nÓg, oh
Come with me to Tír na nÓg

Far away from the land you knew
The dawn of day reaches out to you
Though it feels like a fairy tale
All of this is true

Run with me, have a look around
We built our life over sacred ground
Come, my love, our worlds may part
We'll be safe and sound

Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Sha ta co ti oh nugga Tír na nÓg
Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Nug a Tír na nÓg
Tír na nÓg, oh
Come beyond the ancient fog
Tír na nÓg, oh
Come with me to Tír na nÓg

Time won't follow the path we came
The world you left, it forgot your name
Stay with me and be mine, my love
Spare my heart the pain

Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Sha ta co ti oh nugga Tír na nÓg
Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Nug a Tír na nÓg
Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Sha ta co ti oh nugga Tír na nÓg
Sha ta co ti oh scum ne rivna
Nug a Tír na nÓg
Tír na nÓg, oh
Come beyond the ancient fog
Tír na nÓg, oh
Come with me to Tír na nÓg

Come with me to Tír na nÓg

Óró Sé Do Bheatha 'Bhaile lyrics - Celtic Woman

Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh

Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh

'Sé do bheatha, a bhean ba léanmhar
Do b' é ár gcreach thú bheith i ngéibheann
Do dhúiche bhreá i seilbh méirleach
Is tú díolta leis na Gallaibh

Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh

Tá Gráinne Mhaol ag teacht thar sáile
Óglaigh armtha léi mar gharda
Gaeil iad féin is ní Frainc ná Spáinnigh
Is cuirfidh siad ruaig ar Ghallaibh

Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh

A bhuí le Rí na bhFeart go bhfeiceam
Mura mbeam beo ina dhiaidh ach seachtain
Gráinne Mhaol agus míle gaiscíoch
Ag fógairt fáin ar Ghallaibh

Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh

Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha 'bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh

Sometimes A Prayer Will Do lyrics - Celtic Woman

(originally by Secret Garden)

Sometimes we stumble
Sometimes we even fall
And we can't find a friend
Can't comprehend it all

And we are lost
With nothing to hold on to
When we can't find the answer
Sometimes a prayer will do

And though we wonder
Uncertain if we will get through
To face the future
Sometimes a prayer will do

Sometimes we reach
For what's not really there
Sometimes we lose our grip
Come tumbling through midair

And we are searching
For something to hold on to
When we can't find the answer
Sometimes a prayer will do

And though we wonder
Uncertain if we will get through
To face the future
Sometimes a prayer will do

Yeah, we are stronger
Somehow we know we will get through
To face the future
Sometimes a prayer will do

Yes, we are stronger
Somehow we know we will get through
To face the future
Sometimes a prayer will do
Sometimes a prayer will do

Bean Phaidin lyrics - Celtic Woman

'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise bean Pháidín
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S an bhean atá aige bheith caillte

Rachainn go Gallaí' go Gallaí'
Is rachainn go Gallaí' le Pháidín
Rachainn go Gallaí' go Gallaí'
Is thiocfainn abhaile sa mbád leis

'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise bean Pháidín
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S an bhean atá aige bheith caillte

Oh I got to go, got to go, got to go away with Páidín
Oh we get to go, we're together
And say the way home in the Páidín

'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise bean Pháidín
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S an bhean atá aige bheith caillte

I look through the window, the window
I look through the window for Páidín
His wife is just sitting there knitting
While I'm stuck outside in the garden

I wish I was wedded
Was wed, I wish I was wedded to Páidín
He's chosen to marry another
And that is the cause of my raging

Rachainn go haonach an Chlocháin
Is siar go Béal Á' na Báighe
Bhreathnóinn isteach tríd an bhfuinneog
A' súil is go bhfeicfinn bean Pháidín

'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise bean Pháidín
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S an bhean atá aige bheith caillte

I wish he were taken, were taken
The beautiful wife of my Páidín
He'd not be forsaken, forsaken
I'd still take my place there beside him

'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise bean Pháidín
'S é'n trua ghéar nach mise, nach mise
'S an bhean atá aige bheith caillte

Westering Home lyrics - Celtic Woman

Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good by to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Isle of my heart, my own land

Tell me of lands of the Orient gay
Speak of the riches that come from Cathay
Ah but it's grand to be woken at day
And find yourself nearer to Islay

Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good by to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Light of my heart, my own land

Where are the folk like the folk of the west
Canty and couthy and kindly, the best
There I would hie me and there I would rest
At home with my own folk in Islay

Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good by to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Light of my heart, my own land

Now I'm at home and at home I do lay
Dreaming of riches that come from Cathay
I'll board a good ship and I'll be on my way
And bring back my fortune to Islay

Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good by to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Light of my heart, my own land

Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good by to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Light of my heart, my own land

Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good by to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Light of my heart, my own land

Westering home with a song in the air
Light in the eye and its good by to care
Laughter o' love and a welcoming there
Light of my heart, my own land
Light of my heart, my own land

When You Go lyrics - Celtic Woman

Now the time has come, pack your true belongings
Fill your heart with love, travel is homecoming
Do not fear to fade, find the strength within you
Sing your song today of summer on its way
When the night comes, look to the skies
Fairy tales told of pixies disguised
When the night comes, you will arise
The stars in the sky will lead you back home

When you go will you take my love with you with your heartbeat?
Over rivers, streams, and mountains high and low
When you leave will you take my love with you with your heartbeat?
All I want is bring back to me
When you go

When you go

Now the time has come, pack your true belongings
Fill your heart with love, travel is homecoming
Over stormy seas, journey to adventure
Overcome our needs, conquer your dreams
When the night comes, look to the skies
Fairy tales told of pixies disguised

When you go will you take my love with you with your heartbeat?
Over rivers, streams, and mountains high and low
When you leave will you take my love with you with your heartbeat?
All I want is bring back to me
When you go

When you go, when you go, when you go
When you go, when you go, when you go
When you go-o-o, when you go-o-o, when you go
All I want is bring back to me

When you go will you take my love with you with your heartbeat?
Over rivers, streams, and mountains high and low
When you leave will you take my love with you with your heartbeat?
All I want is bring back to me

When you go

Like An Angel Passing Through My Room lyrics - Celtic Woman

(originally by ABBA)

Long-awaited darkness falls
Casting shadows on the walls
In the twilight hour I am alone
Sitting near the fireplace
Dying embers warm my face

In this peaceful solitude
All the outside world subdued
Everything comes back to me again
In the gloom
Like an angel passing through my room

Half-awake and half in dreams
Seeing long-forgotten scenes
So the present runs into the past
Now and then become entwined
Playing games within my mind

Like the embers as they die
Love was one prolonged good-bye
And it all comes back to me tonight
In the gloom
Like an angel passing through my room

I close my eyes
And my twilight images go by
All too soon
Like an angel passing through my room

Everything comes back to me again
In the gloom
Like an angel passing through my room

I close my eyes
And my twilight images go by
All too soon
Like an angel passing through my room

Walk Beside Me lyrics - Celtic Woman

A child begins with one single step
Then walks a million miles
And though these wings are not ready yet
I will try to fly

My eyes can't see
My arms can't reach
I need strength when I'm weak
I need your faith in me

Don't walk in front of me
I was not born to follow
Don't walk behind me
We were all born to lead
Don't walk without me
I might need you tomorrow
Walk right beside me
Be the real friend I need

If you take small stones, one at a time
You will move that whole mountain
If you climb each rainbow, it's gold that you'll find
And shelter from the rain

My ears can't hear
My heart can't feel
I need strength when I'm weak
I need your faith in me

Don't walk in front of me
I was not born to follow
Don't walk behind me
We were all born to lead
Don't walk without me
I might need you tomorrow
Walk right beside me
Be the real friend I need

Don't walk in front of me
I was not born to follow
Don't walk behind me
We were all born to lead
Don't walk without me
I might need you tomorrow
Walk right beside me
Be the real friend I need
Walk right beside me
Be the real friend I need

Skylands lyrics - Celtic Woman

Do you hear the sound
Beating like a crowd?
Every single star seems to light up now
In these days of rain
Only you remain
Find me where horizons and stars collide

Ní neart go cur le chéile
Ní neart go cur le chéile

Over hills and highlands
I will take on your hands
In these steps forever
These hearts beat together
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands

I can feel your heat
Burning all retreat
No more looking back, with you I'm complete
To the deep blue sea
And for this precious seat
Take us where the raindrops and sun collide

Ní neart go cur le chéile
Ní neart go cur le chéile

Over hills and highlands
I will take on your hands
In these steps forever
These hearts beat together
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands

Higher, higher
We fly in skylands
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands

Over hills and highlands
I will take on your hands
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands

O Tannenbaum lyrics - Celtic Woman

O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blätter
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blätter
Du grünst nicht nur zur Sommerzeit
Nein, auch im Winter, wenn es schneit
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blätter

O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Risplendi nella notte
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Risplendi nella notte
Le luci tue scintillano
Come le stelle brillano
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Risplendi nella notte

O Christmas tree, o Christmas tree
How lovely are your branches
O Christmas tree, o Christmas tree
How lovely are your branches
They're green when summer days are bright
They're green when winter snow is white
O Christmas tree, o Christmas tree
How lovely are your branches

O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blätter
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blätter
Du grünst nicht nur zur Sommerzeit
Nein, auch im Winter, wenn es schneit
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blätter
O Tannenbaum, o Tannenbaum
Wie treu sind deine Blätter
