Lyrics and translation John McCormack - The Harp That Once Through Tara's Halls
The
harp
that
once
through
Tara′s
halls
La
harpe
qui
résonnait
autrefois
dans
les
salles
de
Tara
The
soul
of
music
shed
L'âme
de
la
musique
répandue
Now
hangs
as
mute
on
Tara's
walls
Pends
maintenant
muette
sur
les
murs
de
Tara
As
if
the
soul
were
fled
Comme
si
l'âme
s'était
enfuie
So
sleeps
the
pride
of
former
days
so
glory′s
thrill
is
over
Ainsi
dort
la
fierté
des
jours
anciens,
le
frisson
de
la
gloire
est
terminé
And
hearts
that
once
beat
high
for
praise
Et
les
cœurs
qui
battaient
autrefois
haut
pour
les
louanges
Now
feel
that
pulse
no
more
Ne
sentent
plus
ce
pouls
No
more
to
lords
and
ladies
bright
Plus
de
seigneurs
ni
de
dames
brillantes
The
harp
of
Tara'
swells
La
harpe
de
Tara
gonfle
The
chord
alone
that
breaks
at
night
Le
seul
accord
qui
se
brise
la
nuit
Its
tale
of
ruin
tells
Raconte
son
histoire
de
ruine
Thus
freedon
now
so
seldom
wakes
Ainsi
la
liberté
maintenant
ne
se
réveille
que
rarement
The
only
throb
she
gives
Le
seul
battement
qu'elle
donne
Is
when
some
heart
indignant
breaks
C'est
quand
un
cœur
indigné
se
brise
To
show
that
still
she
lives
Pour
montrer
qu'elle
est
toujours
en
vie
