Vale
Where tall trees whisper low the tale of avondale's proud
Eagle
Where pride and ancient glory fade
Such was the land where he was laid
Like Christ was thirty pieces paid
For Avondale's proud eagle
Oh have you been to Avondale and lingered in her lovely
Vale
Where tall trees whisper low the tale of avondale's proud
Eagle
Long years that green and lovely glade
Have lost for now our grandest Gael
And Cursed the land that has betrayed
Our Avondale's proud eagle
Oh have you been to Avondale and lingered in her lovely Vale Where tall trees whisper low the tale of avondale's proud Eagle Where pride and ancient glory fade Such was the land where he was laid Like Christ was thirty pieces paid For Avondale's proud eagle Oh have you been to Avondale and lingered in her lovely Vale Where tall trees whisper low the tale of avondale's proud Eagle Long years that green and lovely glade Have lost for now our grandest Gael And Cursed the land that has betrayed Our Avondale's proud eagle Explain Request ×
