Clogman’s Glen

[Verse 1]
A moorhen calls, thrushes weave
The light is breaking through the trees
Across the lake, a gentle breeze
Is tossing dandelion seeds

[Verse 2]
A beaten path along the shore
Where fishermen will catch their fill
Breaks off into the wild gorse
And yellow, dense, furze-covered hills

[Chorus]
Ah, do you remember when, my love?
Oh, my love, do you remember when
When we were young, and life was hard
But beautiful in Clogman’s Glen?

[Verse 3]
From here up to the hazel wood
A dozen houses can be seen
With turf smoke rising up above
And children playing in between

[Chorus]
Ah, do you remember when, my love?
Oh, my love, do you remember when
When we were young, and life was hard
But beautiful in Clogman’s Glen?

[Verse 4]
Well, many summers came and went
Before the winter’s icy chill
And cold, stiff wind swept through and blew
Till all was white and stiff and still
