Black Rose

Black Rose

Thin Lizzy

 

Tell me the legends of long ago

When the kings and queens would dance in the realm of the Black Rose

Play me the melodies I want to know

So I can teach my children, oh

Pray tell me the story of young Cuchulainn

How his eyes were dark his expression sullen

And how he'd fight and always won

And how they cried when he was fallen

Oh tell me the story of the Queen of this land

And how her sons died at her own hand

And how fools obey commands

Oh tell me the legends of long ago

Where the mountains of Mourne come down to the sea

Will she no come back to me

Will she no come back to me

Oh Shenandoah I hear you calling

 

A rework of an image I shot whilst back in Ireland in October 2016.

This is Ross Castle, in Killarney, County Kerry at sunset.

Hope you like "Black Rose"
