Original Broadway Cast A Day Beyond Belclare Lyrics

GRACE
The man who gave me life
Is but and inch from death
With my heart torn in two
I go on my way
To hear the wisdom spoke
Upon his final breath

O'FLAHERTY WOMEN
All that you've seen us through
We now can repay
Off from Rockfleet with you
We go to Clew Bay

O'FLAHERTY CLAN
A day beyond Belclare
Your father waits for you
Clan O'Flaherty goes
With you to Clew Bay
As one we leave this day
To see our savior through
Joined as comrades and friends
We'll bond on our way
Marching through the Twelve Bens
And on to Clew Bay

GRACE
My father lies near death
You're by my side, is that a sign?

DONAL
This marriage joined two clans
Your father dies, his crown is mine

TIERNAN Stand back and hold your tongue
Do you not see your wife's in pain?

DONAL
I only say what's true

TIERNAN
You think of her now
And not what you gain
Whatever you do
Remember that I'm
Watching you!

O'FLAHERTY CLAN
A day beyond Belclare
Your father waits for you
Clan O'Flaherty goes
With you to Clew Bay
As one we leave this day
To see our savior through
Joined as comrades and friends
We'll bond on our way
Marching through the Twelve Bens
And on to Clew Bay

A day beyond Belclare
Your father waits for you
Marching through the Twelve Bens
We go to Clew Bay...
Joined as comrades and friends
We bond on our way...
Marching through the Twelve Bens
And on to Clew Bay
