Текст песни The May Morning Dew (The Chieftains) с переводом

How pleasant in winter

To sit by the hob

Just listening to the barks

And the howls of the dog

Or to walk through the green fields

Where wild daisies grew

To pluck the wild flowers

In the may morning dew

When summer is coming

When summer is near

With the trees oh so green

And the sky bright and clear

And the wee birds all singing

Their loved ones to woo

And young flowers all springing

In the may morning dew

I remember the old folk

All now dead and gone

And likewise my two brothers

Young Dennis and John

How we ran o’er the heather

The wild hare to pursue

And the proud deer we hunted

In the may morning dew

Of the house I was born in There’s but a stone on the stone

And now all 'round the garden

Wild thistles have grown

And gone are the neighbours

That I once knew

No more will we wander

Through the may morning dew
