Testo Eileen - Bing Crosby
Testo della canzone Eileen (Bing Crosby), tratta dall'album When Irish Eyes Are Smiling
In a town on the sea, by the castle Dooneen
The fairest of all was the maiden Eileen
The bloom on her cheek was as fresh as the dew
And her heart to a young fisher laddie was true
At morn he would sail with the sun and the tide
At eve would return to his promised young bride
And there on the shore she could hear it so plain
His voice in the wind singing soft this refrain
Eileen, my Eileen
Oh, wait for me, wait, Eileen
They were to be wed on a Sunday in May
And faith, 'twas a joy to see Eileen so gay
The morning before he set sail with the tide
But he never returned to his promised young bride
No, no, nevermore was her heart light and warm
Her lover, he died, yes, he died in a storm
But down by the shore she could still hear so plain
His voice in the wind singing soft this refrain
Eileen, my Eileen
Oh, wait for me, wait, Eileen
They say that her heart, it was broken in two
The lovely Eileen, oh, so young and so true
And down by the shore they who loved her the best
By the rock where she waited they laid her to rest
Oh, many the years that have passed since that day
But maidens who wait for their lovers, they say
That still on the shore they can hear it so plain
His ghost in the wind singing soft this refrain
Eileen, my Eileen
Oh, wait for me, wait, Eileen
