Smoke & Strong Whiskey Lyrics – Christy Moore

Singer: Christy Moore
Title: Smoke & Strong Whiskey

Kids wear white garters, and smell like their mothers
Whose husbands and fathers alike
Drink black beer in the same public houses
Smelling of smoke and strong whiskey

Mammies and daddies, skipping ropes
Lectures from priests, living in hope
That they’ve not mistaken the brand of their coats
They’ve paid for by spiritual teachings

A busy year this, streets running red
How many sent to their nuptial bed
How many sent home to a winter of graves
How many wait in for the slaughter

Oh, oh, the holy ground
Céad míle failte, there’s saints and there’s scholars to see
Oh, oh, the holy ground
Faraway hills ain’t as green as they once used to be

It’s Easter again, and we cannot forget
Our brothers and sisters and all that was said
So practise your pipes, stand proud in the wet
For the eyes of the world are upon you

God in his mercy has given us men
To lead us to peace but they can’t bring an end
To the profits that pay off the lease on the land
We’re still sending them over the water

Seventeen years, Kelly is a man
Who stands on the street with a gun in his hand
He’s protecting the pipers that play in the band
While the enemy waits with an army

Dia le hÉireann, suckle the empire
Dia le hÉireann, suffer the loss
Of the green and the blue while the media feeds
On the blood and the pain and the hatred

Father walks home on a colourless night
The organisation has blinded his sight
His wife and his kids are sleeping tonight
In the arms of sweet Jesus and Mary

Smoke & Strong Whiskey – Terjemahan / Translation

Anak-anak memakai garter putih, dan berbau seperti ibu mereka
Yang suami dan ayahnya sama
Minum bir hitam di rumah-rumah umum yang sama
Bau asap dan wiski yang kuat

Mamimies dan Daddies, melompati tali
Kuliah dari imam, hidup dengan harapan
Bahwa mereka tidak salah mengira merek mantel mereka
Mereka membayar dengan ajaran spiritual

Tahun yang sibuk ini, jalan-jalan yang berlari merah
Berapa banyak yang dikirim ke tempat tidur pernikahan mereka
Berapa banyak yang dikirim pulang ke musim dingin kuburan
Berapa banyak yang menunggu untuk pembantaian

Oh, oh, tanah suci
Céad Mole Failte, ada orang-orang kudus dan ada sarjana untuk dilihat
Oh, oh, tanah suci
Bukit-bukit yang jauh tidak seperti hijau seperti dulu

Ini Paskah lagi, dan kita tidak bisa melupakan
Saudara-saudari kita dan semua yang dikatakan
Jadi, latih pipa Anda, berdiri bangga di basah
Untuk mata dunia ada di atasmu

Tuhan dalam belas kasihannya telah memberi kita pria
Untuk menuntun kita ke damai tetapi mereka tidak bisa mengakhiri
Untuk keuntungan yang melunasi sewa di tanah
Kami masih mengirim mereka ke atas air

Tujuh belas tahun, Kelly adalah seorang pria
Yang berdiri di jalan dengan pistol di tangannya
Dia melindungi Piper yang bermain di band
s#mentara musuh menunggu dengan pasukan

Dia Le Héireann, menyusu Kekaisaran
Dia Le Héireann, menderita kerugian
Dari hijau dan biru s#mentara umpan media
Pada darah dan rasa sakit dan kebencian

Ayah berjalan pulang dengan malam yang tidak berwarna
Organisasi telah membutakan pandangannya
Istrinya dan anak-anaknya tidur malam ini
Di lengan Yesus manis dan Mary
