The Stamping Ground (2001, von „The Stamping Ground“)

April comes to the new grass on the hills of gold
Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o

Where winter falls in the long cold north
Black waters wait in ice and snow
Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o

Black waters wait in ice and sun
Through the glens where your great rivers run

So we tend and we nurture all the seeds we´ve sown
Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o

Through all the frosts and rains the west winds blow
Till the fields turn ripe and a harvest stored
Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o

Through all the frosts and rains the west winds send
We will wait here till the winter´s end

Soit´s blood on blood, our bond our word
Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o

For the strength and weakness of our days
Is to take you there on a journey shared
Tha feur ur air bar an tallamh, bar an tallamh, horribh o

So take this thing, make it sparkle and glow
it´s much greater than we may ever know

Refrain:

Back on the stamping ground
To where it all began
Back on the stamping ground
We come again

Übersetzung der gälischen Textzeile:

There is new grass growing on the top of the soil.



Von Calum und Rory Macdonald
