Blackcock’s Feather

Lyrics

[Verse 1] With a blackcock's feather in a Highland bonnet And an Andrea Ferrara on my hip I bled my wound onto the sand And wrote a letter from my broken hand [Chorus 1] Éithne From a dream long ago Oh Éithne Through the field bonny goes [Verse 2] Your throat will feel this sword's steel line 'Cause Colm O'More was a friend of mine To slice your throat, and hear the yell I'd follow you to the gates of hell [Chorus 2] Éithne From a dream long ago Oh Éithne Through the trees my bonny goes Across the winds I used to know She'll be back like a boomerang, been hanging around with another man Into my arms, bonny goes [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Tеn days we stayed inside thе Glen of Echoes The nine finest days of all my life And on the tenth day, Senan hobbled away A bird sang above, and then flew away
