[00:03.60]Song for Ireland
[00:11.16]Walking all the day
[00:16.02]Near tall towers where falcons build their nests
[00:23.75]Silver-winged they fly
[00:28.87]They know the call of freedom in their breasts
[00:37.77]Saw Black Head against the sky
[00:43.31]Where twisted rocks they run to the sea
[00:52.08]Living on your western shore
[00:57.34]Saw summer sunsets, asked for more
[01:04.22]I stood by your Atlantic Sea
[01:10.79]And sang a song for Ireland
[01:20.96]Talking all the day
[01:25.25]With true friends who try to make you stay
[01:33.04]Telling jokes and news
[01:38.94]Singing songs to pass the time away
[01:46.24]Watched the Galway salmon run
[01:53.17]Like silver dancing, darting in the sun
[02:00.99]Living on your western shore
[02:06.44]Saw summer sunsets, asked for more
[02:11.86]I stood by your Atlantic Sea
[02:19.35]And sang a song for Ireland
[02:29.95]Drinking all the day
[02:34.53]In old pubs where fiddlers love to play
[02:41.07]Saw one touch the bow
[02:46.93]He played a reel which seemed so grand and gay
[02:54.60]Stood on Dingle Beach and cast
[03:02.66]In wild foam we found Atlantic bass
[03:09.43]Living on your western shore
[03:15.48]Saw summer sunsets, asked for more
[03:22.09]I stood by your Atlantic Sea
[03:28.14]And sang a song for Ireland
[03:38.70]Dreaming in the night
[03:43.24]I saw a land where no one had to fight
[03:50.54]Waking in your dawn
[03:55.51]I saw you crying in the morning light
[04:03.18]Sleeping where the falcons fly
[04:11.17]They twist and turn all in your air-blue sky
[04:18.82]Living on your western shore
[04:24.14]Saw summer sunsets, asked for more
[04:30.79]I stood by your Atlantic Sea
[04:37.45]And i sang a song for Ireland
