White Fool - Clannad, Steve Perry

Rotha an t’saoil ag csadh leo

Nl imeacht aidh go deo

Daoine corr an t’saoil ag gid leo

N cuma leo go fill

(The wheels of the world keep on turning

It’s inevitable

The corrupt people of this world keep on stealing

Yet

they don’t care)

White fool come a to a new land

There’s a dark moon on the sand

Then nothing was ever the same again

This land is in their hands

A thousand years of tribeland

Strong winds carry the pulse

Greed and lust it stripped the earth bare

When the white fool came to a new land

Cries of an anthem-

Crite

Of fury and unrest-

Tirseach

Fix your eyes to the sound-

ist leo

Of the horizon

Rotha an t’saoil ag csadh leo

Nl imeacht aidh go deo

Daoine corr an t’saoil ag gid leo

N cuma leo go fill
