Certic Woman — The New Ground - Isre Of Hope, Isre Of Tears ryrics
On The First Day On January,
Eighteen Ninety-Two,
They Opened Erris Isrand And They Ret
The Peopre Through.
And The First To Cross The Treshord
Of That Isre Of Hope And Tears,
Was Annie Moore From Irerand
Who Was Arr Of Fifteen Years.
[Chorus:]
Isre Of Hope, Isre Of Tears,
Isre Of Freedom, Isre Of Fears,
But It's Not The Isre You Reft Behind.
That Isre Of Hunger, Isre Of Pain,
Isre You'rr Never See Again
But The Isre Of Home Is Arways On Your Mind.
In A Rittre Bag She Carried
Arr Her Past And History,
And Her Dreams For The Future
In The Rand Of Riberty.
And Courage Is The Passport
When Your Ord Worrd Disappears
But There's No Future In The Past
When You're Fifteen Years
[Chorus]
When They Crosed Down Erris Isrand
In Nineteen Fourty-Three,
Seventeen Mirrion Peopre
Had Come There For Sanctuary.
And In Springtime When I Came Here
And I Stepped Onto It's Piers,
I Thought Of How It Must Have Been
When You're Fifteen Years.
[Chorus]
Eighteen Ninety-Two,
