CELTIC WOMAN – You’ll Never Walk Alone

[Verse]
When you walk through the storm
Hold your head up high
And don’t be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of the lark

[Chorus]
Walk on, through the wind
Walk on, through the rain
Though your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone

[Verse]

[Chorus]

Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk, you’ll never walk alone

CELTIC WOMAN – Winter Wonderland

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song, as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland

In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown

He’ll say: “Are you married?”
We’ll say: “No man
But you can do the job when you’re in town”

Later on, we’ll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we’ve made
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland

[Fiddle solo]

In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he’s a circus clown
We’ll have lots of fun with mister snowman
Until the other kids, they knock him down

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we’re happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland.

CELTIC WOMAN – What Child Is This

[Fiddle solo]

What Child is this who, laid to rest
On Mary’s lap, is sleeping?
Whom Angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?

Oh raise, oh raise a song on high
His mother sings a lullaby
Joy, oh joy for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him praise
The Babe, the Son of Mary

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh
Come peasant, king to own Him
The King of kings, salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him praise
The Babe, the Son of Mary

[Fiddle solo]

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him praise
The Babe, the Son of Mary

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and Angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him praise
The Babe, the Son of Mary
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

CELTIC WOMAN – We Three Kings

[Bagpipe solo]

We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star

Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

[Bagpipe solo]

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

Glorious now, behold Him arise
King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, Alleluia
Earth to heav’n replies

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light.

CELTIC WOMAN – The Water Is Wide

The water is wide I can’t cross o’er
And I’ver have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I

A ship there is and she sails the sea
She’s loaded deep as deep can be
But not so deep as the love I’m in
I know not if I sink or swim
But not so deep as the love I’m in
I know not if I sink or swim

[Bagpipe solo]

The water is wide I can’t cross o’er
And I’ver have I wings to fly
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I
And both shall row, my love and I
My love and I
My love and I
My love and I

CELTIC WOMAN – The Parting Glass

Of all the money that e’er I had
I spent it in good company
And all the harm I’ve ever done
Alas it was to none but me
And all I’ve done for want of wit
To mem’ry now I can’t recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be to you all

[Chorus]
So fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate’er befalls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all

Of all the comrades that e’er I had
They’re sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e’er I had
They’d wish me one more day to stay
But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all

Fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate’er befalls
And gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all

La La

But since it fell unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all

[Chorus]

Good night and joy be to you all.

CELTIC WOMAN РT̩ir Abhaile Ri̼

Look how the light of the town
the lights of the town are shining now
Tonight I’ll be dancing around
I’m off on the road to Galway now
Look how she’s off on the town
She’s off on a search for sailors though
There’s fine fellas here to be found
She’s never been one to stay at home

Home you’ll go and it’s there you’ll stay
And you’ve work to do in the morning
Give up your dream of going away
Forget your sailors in Galway

Téir abhaile riú, téir abhaile riú
Téir abhaile riú Mhearai
Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile

Down to the lights of Galway where
There’s fine sailors walking the town
And waiting to meet the ladies there
Watch now he’ll soon be along
He’s finer than any sailor so
Come on now pick up your spoons
He’s waiting to hear you play them WHOOO!

And next she’s going to Galway
Jiggin’ around and off to town
And won’t be back until morning

Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile
Mar tá do mhargadh déanta

Off with a spring in my step
The sailors are searching Galway for
A young lady such as myself
For reels and jigs and maybe more
Stay here and never you mind
The lights of the town are blinding you
The sailors they come and they go
But listen to what’s reminding you
Handsome men surrounding you
Dancing a reel around you

Home you’ll go and it’s there you’ll stay
And you’ve work to do in the morning
Give up your dream of going away
Forget your sailors in Galway

Téir abhaile riú, téir abhaile riú
Téir abhaile riú Mhearai
Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile

Stay a while and we’ll dance together now
As the light is falling
We’ll reel away till the break of day
And dance together till morning

Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile
Mar tá do mhargadh déanta

CELTIC WOMAN – Songs From The Heart: Walking The Night / Give Me Your Hand

Walking the night without you
Skies too high without you
Losing my way on silent roads without you
Long lone streets before me
No voice in the night to warn me
No sound of our songs
To bring you to me
Losing my way
Stars send me astray
Walking the night without you
Blind in sight without you
No song I learn
No way I turn
Brings you closer to me
Searching for songs without you
Moon so cold without you
Longing to be near
Straining to hear
A song from you
Walking the stars without you

It’s calling through the dark
It’s reeling in the heart
The sound of the pipes on the wind
The strains of the song
Carry me along
Sending me dancing again

From above and below
A sound soft and low
And the music’s flowing through me like before
And the song that we once knew
Brings me back to you
Pipes play within me once more

Your songs are in my heart
They like a dart
So come give me your hand
Now and we’ll dance tonight
In the blazing light
And the years will fade away
Fade as you play
Play through the dark
Play in my heart

I’m spinning with the sound
There a drumming in the ground
And the humming of the song beneath my skin
And the world falls away
As I hear the pipes play
Sounding the song from within
From within

Your songs are in my heart
They like a dart
So come give me your hand
Now and we’ll dance tonight
In the blazing light
And the years will fade away
Fade as you play
Play through the dark
Play in my heart

There’s a drumming in the ground
And the humming of a sound
That we once knew

Come sing through the night
Come fill me with your light
Play a song sounding out through the years
Play it steady and strong
Fill me with song
Sending me dancing, sending me dancing
Dance as the pipes play away in my heart

Come give me your hand tonight
Your star is bright
Your songs are in my heart!

CELTIC WOMAN – Smile

Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
If you just smile
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use in crying
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
If you just smile, smile.

CELTIC WOMAN – Silent Night

Oíche Chiúin, oíche Mhic Dé
Cách na suan go héiri an lae
Dís is dílse ag faire le spéis
Glór binn aingeal le clos insan aer

Críost ag teacht ar an saol
Críost ag teacht ar an saol

Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild

Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

CELTIC WOMAN – Follow On

When all is said and done,
you are the only one

The shadows on the windows,
Chains upon the door
Sleepless nights been waiting for an answer
Dreams of heaven falling,
Panic in the town
Lowly men with fingers on the future

When all is said and done,
you are the only one

Follow on,
for the open road is waiting
Like the sun,
we will welcome what tomorrow has to bring
Be it fair or stormy weather
Take my hand,
and we’ll walk the road together
I won’t mind,
if it turns out that we never find the end
‘Cause all I ask is that you want me as a friend

Days of beauty calling
Vanish through a haze
Lost inside some spiral with no ending
Still you bring me loving,
Free me with a touch
Lead me out to greet the calm decending

When all is said and done,
You are the only one

Follow on,
for the open road is waiting
Like the sun,
we will welcome what tomorrow has to bring
Be it fair or stormy weather
Take my hand,
and we’ll walk the road together
I won’t mind,
if it turns out that we never find the end
‘Cause all I ask is that you want me as a friend

All I ask is that you want me as a friend
And we’ll walk the road together
I won’t mind,
if it turns out that we never find the end
‘Cause all I ask is that you want me as a friend

All I ask is that you want me as a friend

When all is said and done,
You are the only one

Follow on.
