Sailing Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sailing away to deeper oceans
Hearts are weary, these sleepless nights are hard
But I'm still longing for the hand that led me
Where I had spent my youth away
Chorus:
D'fhág mé slán ag na daoine' tá fágtha
'San talamh a rugadh mén
D'fhág mé slán ag daoine istigh i mo chroí
Sin mar a bheas chóiche
(2x)
Sweeping the waves to foreign mountains
Strange and lonely, I struggle to be brave
How I tremble remembering your brown eyes
Don't let my memories fade away
(Chorus)
