[ti:My Lagan Flows Softly] [ar:Tara] [al:Folk Songs Of Ireland] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.52]My Lagan Flows Softly - Tara [00:09.08]Early in the morning the sun began to rise [00:16.62]Reflecting on her waters the movement of the skies [00:24.05] [00:24.72]Slowly she flows onwards disturbed I cannot see [00:31.60] [00:32.36]Through fields and rolling meadows past local industries [00:40.44]My Lagan she flows softly from Slieve Croob down to the sea [00:47.34] [00:48.10]Through Dromore and Dromara then close to Aghalee [00:55.69] [00:56.42]From Lisburn down to Hilden Lambeg and then Shaws bridge [01:04.13] [01:04.65]To Belfast's salty waters where her lonesome journey ends [01:11.97] [01:12.65]The years pass slowly onwards changes soon unfold [01:20.53]There's no more horses pulling the barges filled with coal [01:28.47]The old Lock gates have rotted and the pathways overgrown [01:35.42] [01:36.42]But still I love to see her as slowly she grows old [01:44.55]My Lagan she flows softly from Slieve Croob down to the sea [01:51.30] [01:52.17]Through Dromore and Dromara then close to Aghalee [01:59.45] [02:00.38]From Lisburn down to Hilden Lambeg and then Shaws bridge [02:08.56]To Belfast's salty waters where her lonesome journey ends [02:16.25] [02:17.45]Memories they are precious and they are brought to life [02:24.27]And you walk along the towpath in the evening's fading light [02:32.58]For even now the nightlife begins a brand new day [02:40.30]Some ripples on the surface and a trout moves on her way [02:47.82] [02:48.61]My Lagan she flows softly from Slieve Croob down to the sea [02:55.30] [02:56.20]Through Dromore and Dromara then close to Aghalee [03:03.77] [03:04.43]From Lisburn down to Hilden Lambeg and then Shaws bridge [03:12.68]To Belfast's salty waters where her lonesome journey ends [03:23.73]
