Fear a Bhata Lyrics

Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
So fare thee well love where e're ye be.
I climb the hilltop and search the ocean.
To see my boatman, my hearts devotion.
When will I see him? today? tomorrow?
Will it ever come, love, to comfort me?

Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
So fare thee well love where e're ye be.

From passing boatmen I'd soon discover.
If they had seen him, my only lover;.
They never answer - I'm always chided,
Tis foolish therefore, to wait for thee.
Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
So fare thee well love where e're ye be.

What of the promise to bring his lady
A silken gown and a tartan plaidie
A ring of gold that would show his portrait
That gown and ring I will never see
Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
So fare thee well love where e're ye be.

I cannot hide it my heartts emotion
Is not a seasons brief emotion
His love since girlhood enthralled has held me
And ne'er shall fade til my dying day

Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
Fear a bhata na horo eile
So fare thee well love where e're ye be.
