Wolfe Tones - Ships In Full Sail
текст песни

The bright sun is shining
And blue skies a-pining for the want of some
Clouds or some ornamentation
The heather's a-blazing and
Cows are a-grazing
I sit on the hill overlooking the bay

They're out in the ocean
The ships are in motion
From Killybegs Harbour right down to Kinsale
Down in the harbour
The crowds they have gathered
To watch the winds blowing the
Ships in full sail

Some men sail for pleasure
And others for treasure
And some do the wishin' and
Some are the fishermen
But what e'er you're making
You'll need no awaking
To the dangers involved for the
Ships on the sea


They're out in the ocean
The ships are in motion
From Killybegs Harbour right down to Kinsale
Down in the harbour
The crowds they have gathered
To watch the winds blowing the
Ships in full sail

The seagulls are squawking
They seem to be talking
Of this grandeous sight
It seems oh so leisurely
Summer is pleasing but winter, it's teasing
The storms will be blowing the
Ships in the sea

They're out in the ocean
The ships are in motion
From Killybegs Harbour right down to Kinsale
Down in the harbour
The crowds they have gathered
To watch the winds blowing the
Ships in full sail

They're out on the ocean the
Ships are in motion
From Killybegs Harbour right down to Kinsale
Down in the harbour the
Crowds they have gathered
To watch the winds blowing the
Ships in full sail
