Shenandoah - James Galway

James Galway on flute Here are the words:

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you,
Away, you rolling river
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to hear you
Away, I'm bound away, cross the wide Missouri.

Oh, Shenandoah, I love your daughter,
Away, you rolling river
Oh, Shenandoah, I love your daughter
Away, I'm bound away, cross the wide Missouri.

Oh, Shenandoah, I'm bound to leave you,
Away, you rolling river
Oh, Shenandoah, I'm bound to leave you
Away, I'm bound away, cross the wide Missouri.

Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you,
Away, you rolling river
Oh, Shenandoah, I long to see you
Away, I'm bound away, cross the wide Missouri.

Great song.

@golferknip11 Like a lot of folk songs, the words vary, often by locality. It is known as an old sea (perhaps started as a river) chanty, or shanty. Sung all over the English speaking world by sailors and others.

@golferknip11 I was told that this is about a person who sang about how he missed the shenandoah valley... and the video even has pictures of the shenandoah valley and blue ridge mountains -.-

天蔚藍,雲所白,大地初醒~

湖之靜,瀑之動,綠意盎然~

音之律,境如詩,收放自如~

日照耀,夜來臨,極盡平衡~
