O bonny Portmore' I am sorry to see |
| [01:13.59] |
|
| [01:16.29] |
Such a woeful destruction of your ornament tree |
| [01:26.93] |
For it stood on your shore for many's the long day |
| [01:37.06] |
Till the long boats from Antrim came to float it away. |
| [01:50.93] |
|
| [01:52.18] |
O bonny Portmore' you're shining where you stand |
| [01:58.20] |
|
| [02:00.46] |
And the more I think on you the more I think long |
| [02:08.96] |
|
| [02:10.77] |
If I had you now as I had once before |
| [02:19.39] |
|
| [02:20.46] |
All the Lords in Old England would not purchase Portmore. |
| [02:32.02] |
|
| [02:35.27] |
All the birds in the forest they bitterly weep |
| [02:42.08] |
|
| [02:43.46] |
Saying' "Where shall we shelter or where shall we sleep?" |
| [02:54.27] |
|
| [02:55.27] |
For the Oak and the Ash' they are all cutten down |
| [03:01.83] |
|
| [03:04.58] |
And the walls of bonny Portmore are all down to the ground. |
| [03:17.31] |
|
| [03:21.96] |
O bonny Portmore' you're shining where you stand |
| [03:30.96] |
And the more I think on you the more I think long |
| [03:40.65] |
|
| [03:41.21] |
If I had you now as I had once before |
| [03:49.33] |
|
| [03:51.52] |
All the Lords of Old England would not purchase Portmore. |
