Song from the album, Tales From The Docks by Paddy And The Rats

Music: Paddy O'Reilly, Sam McKenzie

Lyric: Paddy O'Reilly, Vince Murphy

She was daughter of chief

He was known as a thief

But they fell in love with eachother

Secret tryst under cover of nights

They made vows to another

On one foggy day, he was taken away

To be killed among the prison walls

When she ran off with him they were snatched suddenly

And till morning they hung on the gallows

Many years have gone away, even their mortal remains

Reminds noone of the unjust slaughter

They passed out of mind, just the chief of the clan

Lighted a candle for his daughter

But everyone has to pay for all the sins that they made

And a lover's heart never forgets

A ghost from the grave did not accept the fate

'Cause the soul full of anger is immortal

Is heard a painful call from grave

Far far away, far far away

When the north wind cries his name again

It's forever

He rose up with the twilight to take revange for all the sins

He came from the shadow to mollify his suffering

Moved by the rage, didn't forget the sorrow

The endless pain created the ghost from the barrow

When the sky lost the sun

An innocent soul will come

For the guilty ones says oracle

Someone lost from the town

Just his kilt has been found

A cold corpse lies in the harbour

Bound with the dark

Starts his seven deadly nights

There are less and less of the traitors

And the pain still remains

'Cause the vengence can't replace

His relief and the bate can't save her
