Irish traditional song lyrics — collected by Beer Belly Band.
The sun is burning in the sky
Strands of clouds go slowly drifting by
In the park the dreamy bees are droning in the flowers among the trees
And the sun burns in the sky
Now the sun is in the west
Little babes lay down to take their rest
And the couples in the park are holding hands and waiting for the dark
And the sun is in the west
Now the sun is sinking low
Children playing know it’s time to go
High above a spot appears a little blossom blooms and then draws near
And the sun is sinking low
Now the sun has come to earth
Shrouded in a mushroom cloud of death
Death comes in a blinding flash of hellish heat and leaves a smear of ash
And the sun has come to earth
Now the sun has disappeared
All that’s left is darkness pain and fear
Twisted sightless wrecks of men go groping on their knees and cry in pain
And the sun has disappeared
