St Patrick

You‘re known from Dublin City
To all the new America
You bring the spring to people
But they know who you really are?

A spirit a saints
A druid a flame
To all the preacher men

Nobody knows your story
But only your legend
Because your giant glory
Cannot be acknowledged

So I take a song
From the well you know
For all the preacher men

You should have been here today 
Into this great confusion 
You should have saved the souls 
That are all lost inside the pain 

I am one of those men 
That try to steal a prayer 
From all the places where 
You have lived and predicated 

You should have saved the world 

And in Donegal County
When you killed the evil serpent
The lake is still red coloured
And pilgrims pray near the waters

And no more serpents
Could live in this Land
The greenest ever heard

And in that island of lake
Is there the access to the hell?
Is my so feeble faith
Enough to save me from that

Can I understand
The Trinity sense
Through a shamrock in your hands?

You should have been here today 
Into this great confusion 
You should have saved the souls 
That are all lost inside the pain 

I am one of those men 
That try to steal a prayer 
From all the places where 
You have lived and predicated 

You should have saved the world 

Buon St Patrick day 2014
