Leaves’ Eyes - Eileen's Ardency lyrics
[Leaves’ Eyes - Eileen's Ardency lyrics]
Nothing there that could cause me grief
Nothing could make me sorrow-full and bitter
Nothing could make my head hang down
Eileen my white flower of the blackberry
Whiter than lilies the dew of a rose
Eileen my bright flower of the blackberry
My summer breeze a poem in the spring
Woman why are you crying out your eyes now
Are there any other wooers around
Woman the nightingale sang me a tale tonight
That is not soothing music to my ears
So green her eyes burning red her hair
A hundred rings of thorns around my neck
There's a thousand strings
Strangling my chest is tu ma ghra
A hundred rings of thorns around my neck
There's a thousand strings
Strangling my chest
Eileen my white flower of the blackberry
Whiter than lilies the dew of a rose
Eileen is tu ma ghra
Eileen my death in the spring
