Matt hyland


There was a lord who lived in this town
Who had a lovely handsome daughter
She was courted by a fine young man
Who was a servant to her father
And when her parents came to know
They swore they'd ban him from the island
The maid she swore
That her ehart would break
Had she to part with young Matt Hyland
So straight away to her love she goes
Into his room to awake him
Say: 'Arise my love and go away
This very night you will be taken
I overheard my parents say
In spite of me they will transport you
So arise my love and go away
I wished to God I'd gone before you'
They both sat down upon the bed
Just for the sight of one half hour
And not a word by either said
As down their cheeks the tears did shower
She laid her head upon his breast
Around his neck her arms entwined him
Not a duke nor lord nor an earl I'll wed
I'll wait for you my own Matt Hyland
The lord is caused with his daughter fair
One night alone in her bed chamber
Saying: 'We'll give you leave
For to bring him back
Since there's no one can win your favour'
She wrote a letter then in haste
Her heart for him was still repining
They brought him back, to the church they went
And made a lord of young Matt Hyland

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Dubliners were an Irish folk group active from 1962. Considered among the greatest interpreters of Irish folk music and Celtic music, they distinguished themselves for a simple but engaging style, based on voices, guitars, and violin. Their success is linked to their ability to convey the soul of Irish musical tradition in an authentic and accessible way to a wide audience. Among the most representative songs are "Seven Drunken Nights", "The Wild Rover" and "Whiskey in the Jar". The 1967 album "Dubliners" is considered a milestone in Irish folk music.
