The third single from Donna's stunning debut album Celtic Lady. For more information or to buy the album go to www.donnataggart.com itunes.apple.com/gb/album/cel...
On Raglan Road on an autumn day I met her first and knew That her dark hair would weave a snare that I might one day rue; I saw the danger, yet I walked along the enchanted way, And I said, let grief be a fallen leaf at the dawning of the day. On Grafton Street in November we tripped lightly along the ledge Of the deep ravine where can be seen the worth of passion's pledge, The Queen of Hearts still making tarts and I not making hay - O I loved too much and by such and such is happiness thrown away. I gave her gifts of the mind I gave her the secret sign that's known To the artists who have known the true gods of sound and stone And word and tint. I did not stint for I gave her poems to say. With her own name there and her own dark hair like clouds over fields of May On a quiet street where old ghosts meet I see her walking now Away from me so hurriedly my reason must allow That I had wooed not as I should a creature made of clay - When the angel woos the clay he'd lose his wings at the dawn of day. Patrick Kavanagh
I absolutely love your voice and if you can make a 53-year-old Man cry you must be doing something right you are absolutely beautiful and then when I heard you talk I feel more in love with you I could listen to you sing all day or just talk I am so glad I found you I am A single dad of four as their mom passed away but everybody thinks I am this big tough guy but when I listen to you sing it is so mellow and brings tears to my eyes just everything about you I love 💕💗💕
There r two times I cried in my life....one ws when my grandpa dies and second tym wen I heard ur singing raglan road.....love and peace from India..... :)

@@donnataggartofficial6152 Hi Donna I am sorry I don't know what you mean by where am I streaming from . I Love good music and I listen to local radio and I go on UA-cam and Spotify .. Hope all is going well for you take care God Bless...... S
in my opinion Luke Kelly done the definitive version of this, many have tried, none have come even close, until now,,,,,, brilliant performance,really enjoyed it,,, well done young lady
I sligtly disagree mister Flynn, next to Luke Kelly,s definitive version, Ronnie Drew sung an other perfect version of this brilliant song together with the Dubliners of course, and yet an other version sung by Loreena Mc Kennit is also a brilliant interpretation of this song Greetings from The netherlands.
Wonderful Song ! Love it ! It's one of my all time favourites, and you sing a beautiful version ! Your voice is just superb ! Well Done ! The music backing is excellent also ! Magnificent Upload ! Thank you so much Donna for sharing this fabulous song ! 5*****+
On Raglan Road on an Autumn Day, I saw her first and knew That her dark hair would weave a snare That I may one day rue. I saw the danger, yet I walked Along the enchanted way And I said let grief be a falling leaf At the dawning of the day. On Grafton Street in November, We tripped lightly along the ledge Of a deep ravine where can be seen The worst of passions pledged. The Queen of Hearts still baking tarts And I not making hay, Well I loved too much; by such and such Is happiness thrown away. I gave her the gifts of the mind. I gave her the secret sign That's known to all the artists who have Known true Gods of Sound and Time. With word and tint I did not stint. I gave her reams of poems to say With her own dark hair and her own name there Like the clouds over fields of May. On a quiet street where old ghosts meet, I see her walking now away from me, So hurriedly. My reason must allow, For I have wooed, not as I should A creature made of clay. When the angel woos the clay, he'll lose His wings at the dawn of the day.
Donna Taggart also does a superb rendition of Mary From Dungloe. These lyrics here (Raglan Road) are from the poem by the same name that was written by the famous poet, Patrick Kavanagh. It is believed that Kavanagh, while enjoying a drink at the Bailey Pub, asked Luke Kelly of the Dubliners personally to perform the poem as a song some day. Which he did to great success. The melody is from a traditional air: " The Dawning of the Day" .

Very nice version of this lovely toon. But check out the definitive version of this song performed by Luke Kelly, with or without The Dubliners accompanying him.

On Raglan Road on an Autumn Day,
I saw her first and knew
That her dark hair would weave a snare
That I may one day rue.
I saw the danger, yet I walked
Along the enchanted way
And I said let grief be a falling leaf
At the dawning of the day.
On Grafton Street in November,
We tripped lightly along the ledge
Of a deep ravine where can be seen
The worst of passions pledged.
The Queen of Hearts still baking tarts
And I not making hay,
Well I loved too much; by such and such
Is happiness thrown away.
I gave her the gifts of the mind.
I gave her the secret sign
That's known to all the artists who have
Known true Gods of Sound and Time.
With word and tint I did not stint.
I gave her reams of poems to say
With her own dark hair and her own name there
Like the clouds over fields of May.
On a quiet street where old ghosts meet,
I see her walking now away from me,
So hurriedly. My reason must allow,
For I have wooed, not as I should
A creature made of clay.
When the angel woos the clay, he'll lose
His wings at the dawn of the day.
Hannah Walsh thanks for patrick kavanaghs poem xxx checkout mr celtic reggae raglan road youtube very different but i like it x
I thought nobody could touch Mr.Kelly, but my aunty intoduced me too this lady, this version is amazing
William Delamere chck out mr celtic reggae raglan road youtube its a different version but this is lovely and luke will live forever x
I always thought Van Morrison and the Chieftains was a great version of this song but I have to put this up there with my favourite version
michael higgins mr celtic reggae raglan road youtube very different but i like it
Best version I've heard of this song so far.
Jenn Hatcher you obviously haven’t heard of the dubliners
Hoping you mean greatest version you've heard since the Dubliners
Checkout mr celtic reggae raglan road but this is beautifully made
UpTheRa_32 I have but I still prefer this rendition!!!,

Thanks for sharing! That's rad.
yes the impratur was bestowed on Luke by kavanagh himself.
I feel no one can sign this like Luke Kelly.
