Dan O’ Hara Lyrics by Finbar Furey

Colours

0

It's here I am today God gave and took away
And left without a home for Dan O'Hara
With these matches in my hand in the frost and snow I stand
But here I am today your broken hearted
In the year of sixty four we had acres by the score
The grandest land a man could pull a plough through
But the landlord came you know and he laid our home to low
And here I am today your broken-hearted
Cushla gra mo craoi
Won't you buy a box from me
And have the prayers of Dan from Connemara
Sure I'll sell them cheap and low
Buy a box before you go
From the broken-hearted farmer Dan O'Hara
And for twenty years or more did misfortune cross our door
My poor old wife and I were sadly parted
We were scattered far and wide and our children starved and died
But here I am today your broken-hearted
Cushla gra mo craoi
Won't you buy a box from me
And have the prayers of Dan from Connemara
Sure I'll sell them cheap and low
Buy a box before you go
From the broken-hearted farmer Dan O'Hara
Tho' in frost and snow I stand beneath the shadow of God's hand
It lies warm from the brow of Dan O'Hara
And so soon with God above I will meet the ones I love
And find the live I lost in Connemara
Cushla gra mo craoi
Won't you buy a box from me
And have the prayers of Dan from Connemara
Sure I'll sell them cheap and low
Buy a box before you go
From the broken-hearted farmer Dan O'Hara
