Where The Shore Remembers
The Cheeky Celt
4:04Come gather around, let the story be told Of Eoin the Brave, with a heart made of gold A warrior so bold, from the hills of Tralee Who fought for his home and for Ireland's decree Oh, ride, Eoin, ride, let your legend remain Through valleys and mountains, through fire and rain With sword high above and the truth in your hand You carried the hopes of your dear native land The redcoats had come with their banners held high To trample the fields and to silence the cry But Eoin stood tall with his men side by side For freedom, for honor, for those who had died Oh, ride, Eoin, ride, let your legend remain Through valleys and mountains, through fire and rain With sword high above and the truth in your hand,Y Ou carried the hopes of your dear native land Through mist-covered hills and the dark of the night He rode like the wind to escape from their sight Though outnumbered and chased, he still led the fight A beacon of hope in the cold moonlight Oh, ride, Eoin, ride, let your legend remain Through valleys and mountains, through fire and rain With sword high above and the truth in your hand You carried the hopes of your dear native land But treachery lurked in the whispers of men A traitor's own greed led to Eoin's sad end Betrayed and alone, yet he made his last stand A warrior's spirit still strong in the land Oh, ride, Eoin, ride, though you've fallen in pain Your name will live on in each proud Irish name Through songs and through stories, your memory will stand The hero who fought for his dear native land.
