about

The lyrics to this song were inspired as a grandmother and the coming of age of her granddaughter as the banjo is crosspicked to a traditional Sicilian melody.

lyrics

ROSA LUCY
Lyrics by Kate Power ©2017
Music Trad. Arr. Cu ti lu Dissi

As you wander in the world, finding your way
From your mother’s little girl in the cottage by the bay
Where the salmon run their run and eagles do soar
Forest branches swing and sway high above the ocean’s roar

I still remember how far we’ve come
There in the distance, the place you come from
Look to the stars, your dreams they do burn
Like embers in the night, await your return

Travel far and travel wide, all the world ‘round
When you feel a little lost, when the troubles get you down
Listen for the tune of wind whistling round
Every stick and brick and bend, cannot hold it to the ground

Try to remember how far we’ve come
There in the distance, the place you come from
Look to the stars, your dreams they do burn
Like embers in the night, await your return

I have been where you now go, when I was young
That was many years ago, given in my mother tongue
There was so much more to know than I could see
And the words I sing you now are the ones she gave to me

Try to remember how far we’ve come
There in the distance, the place we came from
Look to the stars, your dreams they do burn
Like embers in the night, await your return
