Cara Dillon - Craigie Hill

It Being In The Springtime
And The Small Birds They were Singing,
Down by Yon Shady Harbour
I Carelessly did Stray,
The Thrushes They were Warbling,
The Violets They were Charming
To View Fond Lovers Talking,
A While I did Delay.

She Said, My Dear Don't Leave Me
All For Another Season,
Though Fortune Does Be Pleasing
I 'll Go Along With You,
I 'll Forsake Friends and Relations
And Bid This Irish Nation,
And To The Bonny Bann Banks
Forever I 'll Bid Adieu.

He Said, My Dear Don't Grieve
Or yet Annoy My Patience,
You Know I Love You Dearly
The More I'm Going Away,
I'm Going To A Foreign Nation
To Purchase A Plantation,
To Comfort Us Hereafter
All In Amerikay.

Then After A Short While
A Fortune does Be Pleasing,
I'will Cause Them for Smile
At Our Late going Away,
We'll Be Happy As Queen Victoria,
All In Her Greatest Glory,
We'll Be Drinking Wine And Porter
All In Amerikay.

If You were In Your Bed Lying
And Thinking On Dying,
The Sight Of The Lovely Bann Banks,
Your Sorrow You'd Give Over,
Or If were Down One Hour,
Down In You Shady Bower,
Pleasure Would Surround You,
You'd Think On Death No More.

Then Fare You Well,Sweet Cragie Hills,
Where Often Times I've Roved,
I Never Thought My Childhood Days
I 'd Part You Any More,
Now We're Sailing On The Ocean
For Honour And Promotion,
And The Bonny Boats Are Sailing,
Way Down By Doorin Shore.

Cara Dillon
出生于1975年，来自一个爱尔兰传统音乐世家。她的声音清透美丽而极具风格，让观众们觉得相间恨晚。用这样一句话来形容她不足为过：Cara Dillonn是个不寻常的天才！

14岁的时候，她就赢得了全爱尔兰传统歌唱比赛冠军。在开始她自己喜欢的事
业之前，她和她的伙伴sam lakeman和一家唱片公司签约想做流行歌手，可之后他们发现自己并不喜欢做流行音乐。于是他们出了一张凄美的民歌专集car a dillon/rough trade records，出乎意料地赢得了广泛好评。这股随之而来的Cara Dillon效应让她和她的伙伴完全转型。而之后她所获得的无数奖项更加肯定了他们的转型。

《爱尔兰音乐杂志》说，Cara Dillon冷酷却富有感染力的声音包含着她对家乡的热情和对国家的热爱。folk roots magazine评价说，毫不夸张地说，Cara Dillon有着极少数人才有的美妙嗓音。

Cara Dillon似乎只用了几年的时间就征服了整个国家，这几年她过得惊心动魄、大事不断。她天生的性格拥有罕见的让人无法抗拒的魅力，她能够把宏大的故事融入歌曲当中，摄人心魄，她那包罗万象的品质跨越了国家、文化、甚至是语言的界限。
