Flogging Molly - Light of a fading star Lyrics
Album: Within A Mile Of Home

Tell me why must a man be of service
To his lord and the gods seldom high
From the grave sprang the name of our fathers
But there's no glint in a dead man's eye
Tell me why are our fields filled with hunger
And fruitless the crop bitterd soil
So I say my farewell to a nation
As the leaf waves goodbye to its sun

So it's to youth I sing you this story
And it's of youth I sing it now
Like the train that derailed without warning
I must leave what I left far behind
So goodbye sweet Roisin Dubh
I say goodbye

Tell me why must our peace be this puzzle
That fractures the land splinters war
The last nails sank the shame on our coffin
But in the end we must all die alone

So it's to youth I sing you this story
And it's of youth I sing it now
Like the train that derailed without warning
I must leave what I left far behind
So goodbye sweet Roisin Dubh
I say goodbye

And the bark fell from tree
To the ground that now bleeds
On the anguish that never learnt to shout
With the clash of the drum will surrender the gun
And on this sadness we shall no longer speak
Until tank and the bomb are all forgotten songs
That's when I and we will sing again
So goodbye to my love
My sweet Roisin Dubh
Goodbye now until we meet again

Tell me why must our grief still be greiving
For a language that never spoke its loss
But this tongue spit with fire will tear down the barbwire
And rip the belly from the waxy ghost

So it's to youth I sing you this story
And it's of youth I sing it now
Like the train that derailed without warning
I must leave what I left far behind

So it's to youth I sing you this story
And it's of youth I sing it now
Like the train that derailed without warning
We must leave what we left far behind
So goodbye sweet Roisin Dubh
I say goodbye

So goodbye, sweet Roisin Dubh
I say goodbye

Until we meet again
Until we meet again
Until we meet again
She'll rise to beautify
But slumber now must rest
O' my Roisin Dubh I'll forever love the youth you once possessed
