Текст (слова) песни: McKennitt, Loreena - Kellswater

Heres a health to you bonny Kellswater
Where you get all the pleasures of life
Where you get all the fishing and fowling
And a bonny wee lass for your wife.


Oh its down where yon waters run muddy
Im afraid they will never run clear
And its when I begin for to study
My mind is on him thats not here.


And its this one and that one may court him
But if any one gets him but me
Its early and late I will curse them
The parting lovely Willie from me.


Oh a father he calls on his daughter
Two choices Ill give unto thee
Would you rather see Willies ship a sailing
See him hung like a dog on yonder tree.


Oh father, dear father, I love him
I can no longer bide it from thee
Through an acre of fire I would travel
Along with the lovely Willie to be.


Oh hard was the heartbreak Im finding
She took from her full hearts delight
May the chains of old Ireland come find them
And softly their pillows at night.


Oh yonder theres a ship on the ocean
And she does not know which way to steer
From the east and the west shes a-blowing
She reminds me of the charms of my dear.


Oh its yonder my Willie will be coming
He said hed be here in the spring
And its down by yon green shades Ill meet him
And among wild roses well sing.


For a gold ring be placed on my finger
Saying love bear this in your mind
If ever I sail from old Ireland
Youll mind Ill not leave you behind.


Heres a health to you bonny Kellswater
Where you get all the pleasures of life
Where you get all the fishing and fowling
And a bonny wee lass for your wife.
