</a> <br></br>A gentle ballad for a lovers who cannot be together.<br></br>
<br></br>
Wings of Angels<br></br>
<br></br>
Could I command the wings of angels<br></br>
Order them to where you lie<br></br>
To lift you up while you are sleeping<br></br>
And lay you down by my side<br></br>
<br></br>
If by my hand the winds of heaven<br></br>
In cloudy arms transport the rain<br></br>
To grace your days with rainbow ribbons<br></br>
* And by night…

* And by night wash clean your pain<br />
<br />
You are everything to me<br />
Is tú grá geal mo chroí<br />
You are everything to me<br />
** Is tú grá geal mo chroí<br />
<br />
Could I control the turning seasons<br />
Place the seeds in nature’s room<br />
From my heart the flowers of summer<br />
Would all arise and for you bloom<br />
<br />
* Alternate lines<br />
And in the nighttime ease your pain<br />
And by night sing this refrain<br />
While in the night this truth remains<br />
<br />
** Translation<br />
You are the bright love of my heart<br />
<br />
