De qué habla

Un irlandés cuenta que otros le envidian por las colinas de Clare, pero que las dejaría por un desierto si ella estuviera allí. Imagina el camino más largo hasta una casa escondida con fuego de turba y el día más largo para gritar a todos que nunca se separará de ella.

Letra

They envy me, my hills of Clare,
the white gulls calling in the soft sea air...
so much to lose...
And yet I'd leave the hills of Clare
and live in a desert if I had you there.
What would I lose if I could choose?

If I could choose a place to walk with you
I'd choose the longest road
and it would lead us to a house that no one knew,
bellows by the fire,
and the turf smoke rising higher
than the lark that wings and always sings of you.

If I could choose a time to talk with you
I'd choose the longest day
and over all the hills of Clare, I'd shout the news,
I would tell them how a day could last forever
and I'd never leave your side if I could choose.

If I could choose a time to talk with you
I'd choose the longest day
and over all the hills of Clare, I'd shout the news,
I would tell them how a day could last forever
and I'd never leave your side if I could choose.
