The Flower of Finae - Skilda

[00:39.85]He fought at Casino—she's proud of his glory
[00:48.69]Yet sadly she sings \"Siubhail a Rúin\" all the day
[00:58.19]Oh, come home my darling, come home to Finae
[01:12.63]At long years have passed till she's nigh broken-hearted
[01:20.94]Her reel and her rock and her flax she has parted
[01:30.42]She sails with the wild geese to Flanders away
[01:39.39]And leaves her poor parents alone in Finae
[01:51.17]Lord Clare on the field of Ramillies is charging
[02:00.20]Behind him the Cravats, their sections display
[02:09.37]Beside him rides Fergus and he shouts for Finae
[02:31.65]On the slopes of La Judoigne the Frenchmen are flying
[02:40.71]Lord Clare and his squadrons the foe still defying
[02:49.07]Outnumbered and wounded retreat in array
[02:59.52]And bleeding rides Fergus and he thinks of Finae
[03:15.45]In the cloisters of Ypres a banner is swaying
[03:24.47]And by it a pale weeping maiden is praying
[03:35.69]That flag's the sole trophy of Ramillies' fray
[03:45.47]This nun is poor Eily, the flower of Finae
