Sitting in your loneliest Sitting with your thoughts Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro Remembering her. Chorus Hi ho ru bha ho Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro 'S na hi ho ru bha ho And that calm untroubled time When Adam was young Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro Without wife or child But naked she came And captured his blood Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro His reason and his plough. Sitting in your own knowledge Sitting with your dimming vision Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro Remembering her. And the Gadaiche dubh (Black Thief*) With his supporting friend Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro Boban Saor (The legendary Carpenter*) He was given an honest wife From our store Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro And she was gentle Now they laugh Believing they were in our shade Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro From the first day But what are we following? Boban Saor is in your mind Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro And he was in the first blood. There are many virtuous folk Behind the door Hi o 's na ho hi ho ro And it is cold out. |
