Celtic Woman - Long Journey Home Lyrics
If on every ocean the ship is a throne
And for each mast cut down
Another sapling is grown
Then I could believe that I'm bound to find
A better life than I left behind
But as you ascend the ladder look out below where you tread
For the colours bled as they overflowed
Red, white and blue, green, white and gold
So I had to leave from my country of birth as for each child grown tall
Another lies in the earth and for every rail we laid in the loam
There's a thousand miles of the long journey home
But as you ascend the ladder look out below where you tread
For the colours bled as they overflowed
But as you ascend the ladder look out below where you tread
For the colours bled as they overflowed
Red, white and blue, green, white and gold
Red, white and blue, green, white and gold

Celtic Woman Long Journey Home Comments
Une pure merveille c'est très beau j'adore
Where is my chloe? who make them disappeared?
Massa d+ lindas e contam muito ...
I saw these women in late 2019 here in little rock , arkansas. Me and mom loved listening to them. I went to the show but my mom was in the hospital, I told her I got to go and I wished she had been there with me , we had planned to go together. She died a few weeks ago from cancer. I'll always listen to Celtic women and remember my mom. I love you mom.
Amazing so Beautiful
Rather, it is brilliant!!😄😄😄
I just noticed, your passion, ladies, is magnificent!!!😄😄😄💝💝💝
Me encanta éste tipo de música. Siempre he deseado visitar Irlanda ya que me transmite un atractivo especial. Espero hacerlo pronto y ver todo lo que pueda de ese mágico país. Desde España.
Those ladies are just fantastic was at the concert in Johnstown and it was just phenomenal and I am really looking forward to Killarney will do my best to get there. Ireland can be proud of those ladies.
Why are there sometimes 3 singers and sometimes 4?
didnt know melisandre played violin.
I love how Megan moves, I would love to dance with her. Actually, dancing with each of you would be pure joy!😄😄😄💝💝💝
What an amazing song as sung by beautiful voices and Tara's amazing fiddle!
Beautiful, but not the line up I'm used to, I guess Chloe and the other girls have moved on, still. Nice to see the Celtic women still going.
May the colors blend and overflow! This I pray!
This is so lovely! I love the sweetness of this song. Thank you ladies!!
gostei muito dessa canção, vou colocar na playlist de minhas favoritas. o/
abraços e beijos para essas belas damas. :*
Authentic irish music. Beautiful voices with extraordinary orchestra. How well they put it together. It's just amazing.
God gave these ladies such a precious gift of singing..I never get tired of listening to them
And on the other hand we had nickey minaj with her shitting music....
When I die Lord let me hear the Celtic Woman so I know I’m in heaven.
Amen.
Roubaram meu ❤️
I was at Celtic Woman's concert in Curitiba. Just wonderful!
Ouvindo música de verdade aqui do Brasil 🇧🇷
isso é que é show, um show de cultura, que as pessoas saibam aproveitar essa maravilha, lindo muito lindo
I do so love Megan, and I know she is a natural and worthy fit into the present fit, of the present girls, But there is one fault, on Megan's presentation... that gets under my skin, (and its nothing to do with her, I will be quick to add!) and its whoever her makeup personnel is... who impose on her those absolutely horrid "Gaucho Max Moustache' black eyebrows! I absolutely detest them, as they ruin an otherwise exquisitely beautiful face. Surely the show's management, can do better to find a better "makeup artist" instead of making poor Megan appear as if she just came out of David Bowie's Rocky Horror Show!
Mangt ought to have 'better taste and not punish' your stars by this lack of detail.
(My 2 cents worth, Loved CW all these years.)
👍👍👍😍😍😍
I <3 you Celtic women official!
This song touched my heart 😭♥️♥️♥️
You are Celestial Angels !! Beautiful thing to hear and see !! <3
Why is your stage full of pedophilia symbols?
This should be the anthem for Irish descended Americans.
Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Pensei que fosse o único.
I heard it and i feel in love with It.🌟
I hope Celtic woman can continue singing for at least 100 years.
2:00 she's pretty XD
I think she is Eabha (spelling? pronounced like Ava). They're all so lovely (including all who used to be with the group), but of these current ladies I love her voice the most (though I would love to be able to sing like any of them!).
LikeLikeLike☻👍
☻🤝🤝🕊🕊🕊☻Loveyou🤝🤝
Bring back the original Celtic woman
2:40 Is my favorite part of the video. The song is so very touching already and seeing such a genuine moment between what I assume is mother and daughter adds to the experience.
Bellas!
Please how can I download them. So lovely
Ireland you magical country.I am croatian and I appreciate your history, pride and all those wonderful sprinkled fairy tales.
Thank you so much Elvis, wishing you many years of good health
Wow there’s none of the originals left
I think Maev still works with them on song arrangement, singing in Gaelic, has written at least one of their songs, and sometimes performs. I will always miss the originals, but it's wonderful that this group doesn't dissolve away when someone leaves, they keep finding more extraordinary singers.
Fantastic ❤❤❤
Celtic woman dated 1993 the older version
The older verson the album of A New Journey
I've fallen in love with Celtic songs. Truly magical!
I like this music
Has celtic women ever been to India for any concert... how much do a ticket cost for their concert ? ...... I am in love with their visual ,voice ..... Really waiting for them to come to India
Wish these ladies would come to Texas
They were on journey in the United States. They did a concert in Houston and Austin a couple of months ago.
!! Sencillamente Maravilloso! !
...sin palabras.
Song makes me wonder when my ancestors crossed from the isles nearly 300 years ago
Me encantan sus voces!! Mi absoluta admiración! Saludos desde Argentina!
I'm 17 yo and i think that we need more of that kind of songs nowadays! Simply pure and beautiful. This song makes me travel: i can feel the sunlight on my face, see flowers blooming through their voices. This song is so colorful and magical aaaa1☘⚘😭
How very true. Very true.
Ah yeah, I agree..
I agree 100%
I am 34yo and I love this music
Fantastic!
Blessed....
St. John's castle with the lightning and musical calms me down having to put up with the Democrats in the US.
Call paul single 12062653988
I love that they’ve started to add a bit of the background choir back! (And maybe they did before I haven’t seen many of the new ones) but I’ve really missed the little touch they add to the ladies’ beautiful voices 😭😄
Irish is blessed...... I wish to be a part of there one day.
Is CW coming back to Australia anytime soon?
Show...
Tudo é mágico com vcs!!!
Parabéns à todos que participaram desse grandíssimo Espetáculo!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Realmente é magnífico!

I love Ireland from Japan🇯🇵 There are beautiful traditional music, nature in Ireland. Someday I wanna go to Ireland🇮🇪
Kyuri hope your dreams come true 🇯🇵🇮🇪
I really loved this outstanding song .. always reminds me of feels like home from far away and beyond. There's no place like home with a special heart. 😢😍
Words can not depict my love of the production. I believe that it has changed me.
🃏🦍🐩🦄💎🦄🐩🦍🧚♀️💗♠️💗🧜♀️🦍🀄
👏👏👏🤝🤝
Celtic women sing beautifully! I wish That I could sing as well!
If on every ocean the ship is a throne
And for each mast cut down
Another sapling is grown
Then I could believe that I'm bound to find
A better life than I left behind
But as you ascend the ladder
Look out below where you tread
For the colors bled as they overflowed
Red, white and blue
Green, white and gold
So I had to leave from my country of birth
As for each child grown tall
Another lies in the earth
And for every rail we laid in the loam
There's a thousand miles of the long journey home
But as you ascend the ladder
Look out below where you tread
For the colors bled as they overflowed
Red, white and blue
Green, white and gold
2:41 you can tell how amazing this music is. You can see in the audience that they have connected. AMAZING
MAGIC!!!!! 💖💖💖💖💖
Girls you Just made this my favourite song from the Homeland,,🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🍀🍀🍀🍀💚💚💚💚💚irish Lassie
Brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.
One of my all-time favourite Celtic Woman songs. It was so special to be in the audience for those two incredible concerts at Johnstown Castle.
Why does the violinist look like Patty Gurdy...?
Seeing the D V D& listing on ipad is the best by all comparisons except for my family.
P S they dont sing.
I adore this song!
Bravo.! :)
I love it I’m shanebearddj
This melody is simple, but pretty. In fact, it is catchy! I like the new selections that Celtic Woman has chosen for Ancient Land. 🍀
Love Irish music and I am not even Irish. 👍. Beautifully sung ,,,❤️
So disappointed that St. Louis isn’t on the tour this year ☹️ At least I can enjoy the special when it’s released
So great
Love this song a lot. I am also of Irish descent, and this song just touches my heart. These people are stunning.
Which music concert. When,where.
Ancient Land Tour Cyril. Now touring North America (with more global dates soon to be announced) full list of dates and venues available on celticwoman.com/tour-dates
What is the name of that black hair women.
Her name is Mairead Carlin
Um, I hate to be that guy, but the colors of the Irish Republic are green, white, and orange, not green, white, and gold.
In songs and poems, the colours are sometimes enumerated as "green, white and gold", using poetic license.
Yeah, I know the song would sound much worse if they sang, "green white and orange" instead of "green white and gold", I'm just an exuberantly pedantic fellow that can't help be a bit bothered by it. :/
@MNM mcg you sound like the guy who also gets mad at people using "doggo speak"
@MNM mcg perhaps you can walk through fields of gold sometime. Then you will understand.
Too short of a song, that’s why Isle of Hope, Isle of Tears is a more enjoyable song. Tara is a very talented fiddler!
I like the effect of the fountains!
**cries**
By the way, the real Emmy/Oscar winner of this particular video is the editors. What most don't realize is this is actually a composite of the Thursday and Friday performance cut into one song. How do I know this? Well I was there Thursday and I can tell you there are differences between the performance, but I will not give away the magnificence of both this performance and the masterful editing. Bravo on both!
Absolutely beautiful👍👍
15 Haters? Who can possibly vote this down? Maybe they are not your favorite, but this is stunning! And I was there to see this in person the day of the filming. I do think Megan needs to get some teeth whitening, I didn't notice that until this particular video.
<3 beautiful song
my mum came from britian married here died here she would understand this song
Come to Mexico
