| FAIR JEAN |
CHORUS: Flower of maidens, Fair Jean, Star of lasses, faithful, young, Secret theme she is to my song, Dearest of my heart, the beautiful young maid. Happy haven we had over there, The moorland sheiling, the cattle fold, Our contentment was suddenly scattered, Like mist of the cold mountains scattered by the wind. CHORUS: The sound of war is in the land, See the ships as they set sail, Listen to the drums and the sounds of the pipes, See the heroes going on board. CHORUS: If it is part of my destiny to be healthy The large guns will cease to roar; In Baile Mhonaidh (the Moorland town) I will reside With Fair Jean, my beautiful young lass. CHORUS: |
