Wowww, this gives me shivers down my spine and i dont have a clue what's he on a about. This is a truly beautifull song, sung by a wonderfull artist. I, am glad that i can still discover these kind of songs at the age of 31.
Can someone translate, or even give the gist if what this song is about? I gather it's about Ireland, and am guessing it's a love song, but would like to have a fuller picture. The melody is haunting; so typically that Irish bitter-sweetness.
Liam has the best voice I have ever heard! God bless you Liam RIP

Theres a [D] home by the [Em7] wide Avon- [D]more [G D],

Like a sick man that longs for the dawn,
I do long for the light of her smile,
And I pray for my own cailín bán,
While Im waiting for her by the stile.
O Id climb all the hills of this land,
And I'd swim all the depths of the sea,
To get one kiss from her lily-white hand,
Is ar Éirinn ní neosfainn cé hí.

I have toiled sore those years of my life,
Through storm, through sunshine and rain,
And I surely would venture my life,
For to shield her one moment from pain,
For she being my comfort in life,
Though my comfort and joy she may be,
She's my own she is my promised wife,
Is ar Éirinn ní neosfainn cé hí.

O but when I will call her my own,
And it's married we both then will be,
Like the King and the Queen on their throne,
We'll be living in sweet unity,
O its then I'll have a home of my own,
And I'll rear up a nice family.
O it's then that her name will be known,
But for Ireland I won't tell her name.
