lyrics

You took your form
The sun did swell
Standing like the old stone walls
Or the gates of Hell

What came before you
The country quelled
Like all the rabbits gone into the ground
Into their dark dirt cells

So I dug deeper still
Buried a bone to find my will
You'll always have your summer crown
All the creatures dancing round

You gave us water
A purpose too
We walked atop of all your mysteries
Over ancient hues

When I'm alone or feeling down
Lost and ever waiting to be found
I find myself thinking of you

We walked higher still
Threw a stone and took our fill
You're the keeper of the truth
Oh what a beautiful thing you are

You are a beautiful thing

Slieve Binnian, the canyon of our hearts' desires
Slieve Binnian, you carry on with all this life
Slieve Binnian, I'd give everything to hear you speak
Slieve Binnian, the smaller of the tallest peaks
