If you ever go across the sea to Ireland |
| [00:47.954] |
Then maybe at the closing of your day |
| [00:54.955] |
You can sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh |
| [01:01.957] |
And see the sun go down on Galway Bay |
| [01:10.707] |
Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream |
| [01:18.145] |
The women in the meadow making hay |
| [01:24.333] |
Just to sit beside the turf fire in a cabin |
| [01:31.84] |
And watch the barefoot gosoons as they play |
| [02:07.26] |
For the breezes blowing o'er the sea's from Ireland |
| [02:15.28] |
Ooooh |
| [02:15.277] |
Are perfumed by the heather as they blow |
| [02:20.527] |
And the women in the uplands digging praties |
| [02:27.91] |
Speak a language that the strangers do not know |
| [02:34.92] |
Yet the strangers came and tried to teach us their ways |
| [02:40.780] |
And they scorned us just for being what we are |
| [02:46.905] |
But they might as well go chasin after moon beams |
| [02:53.407] |
Or light a penny candle from a star |
| [03:01.471] |
And if there's gonna be a life here after |
| [03:07.470] |
And faith somehow I'm sure there's gonna be |
| [03:13.368] |
I will ask my God to let me make my Heaven |
| [03:20.191] |
In that dear land across the Irish sea |
| [03:27.629] |
I will ask my God to let me make my Heaven |
| [03:34.881] |
In my dear land across the Irish sea |
| [03:47.257] |
Oooooooh |
| [04:01.821] |
In my dear land across the Irish sea |
