Loreena Mckennitt - Stolen Child
Where Dips The Rocky Highland
There Lies A Leafy Island
Of Sleuth Wood In The Lake
Where Flapping Herons Wake
The Drowsy Water Rats
There We've Hid Our Fairy Vats
Full Of Berries
And Of Reddest Stolen Cherries.
Chorus
Come Away Oh Human Child
To The Waters And The Wild
With A Faery Hand In Hand
For The World's More Full Of Weeping
Than You Can Understand
Where The Wave Of Moonlight Glosses
The Dim Grey Sands With Light
By Far Off Furthest Rosses
Weaving Olden Dances
We Foot It All The Night
Mingling Hands And Mingling Glances
To And Fro We Leap
Till The Moon Has Taken Flight
And Chase The Frothy Bubbles
And Is Anxious In Its Sleep.
Whilst The World Is Full Of Troubles
Chorus
Where The Wandering Water Gushes
From The Hills Above Glen Car
That Scarce Could Bathe A Star
In Pools Among The Rushes
We Seek For Slumbering Trout
And Whispering In Their Ears
Give Them Unquiet Dreams
Leaning Softly Out
From Ferns That Drop Their Tears
Over The Young Streams
Chorus
Away With Us He's Going
The Solemned Eyed
He'll Hear No More The Lowing
Or The Kettle On The Hob
Of The Calves On The Warm Hillside
Or See The Brown Mice Bob
Round And Round The Oatmeal Chest.
Sing Peace Unto His Breast
Chorus
For He Comes, The Human Child
To The Waters And The Wild
With A Faery Hand In Hand
For The World's More Full Of Weeping
Than You Can Understand
