Subject: RE: New Member, Old Lyrics From: GUEST Date: 26 Jul 00 - 09:15 AM The blackbird of sweet Avondale was Charles Stuart Parnell, leader of the Irish independence movement in the British Parliament in the late 19th century. Avondale was his country house estate. One of my Irish songbooks has an old photograph of the house on the page with "Have you been to Avondale", which I think is in the DT. Wassail! V |
Subject: Lyr Add: THE BLACKBIRD OF SWEET AVONDALE ^^ From: Patrish(inactive) Date: 26 Jul 00 - 08:57 AM Welcome shanti, hope you enjoy your time here as much as I do Hope these are the words you wanted Patrish
THE BLACKBIRD OF SWEET AVONDALE
By the bright bay of Dublin while carelessly strolling
Her robes changed to mourning that once were so glorious
To the fair counties Meath, Kerry, Cork and Tipperary
Now the fowlers waylay him in hopes to enchain him
Now the cold prison dungeon is no habitation
Now the birds in the forest for me have no charm ^^
