Camino song: Buen Camino
Senan Lillis walked the Camino de Santiago from Astorga to Santiago and has sent us his personal Camino song, called Buen Camino! We hope you like it.
BUEN CAMINO
AIR: Cockles and Mussels (Low & Slow)
Chorus
Buen Camino
Buen Camino
Buen Camino
To Santiago.
In far away Spain, ‘cross mountains and plains,
I set on the route to Santiago,
For hundreds of years, midst blood, sweat and tears,
With amigos and pilgrims a-walk in’ we’ll go.
Chorus
So from St. Jean we pondered
Indeed, it’s no wonder,
For centuries peregrinos ov’r mountains did go
Across plains and valleys, with back-packs and Sally ‘s
All heading off to Santiago.i v
Chorus.
They’ve come from near and far a-following His star,
Like shepherds a-wandering like long, long ago,
Mind tossing and pondering, soul searching and craving,
A-loving and sharing while westwards we go.
Chorus
So I now say ‘ goodbye’, with a tear in my eye,
For homeward tomorrow , alas, I must go,
For the great walk is ending, but now I am singing,
For its then I’ll begin my real Camino.
