1
Galway Bay : To Uncle Ed, Boston, Mass.
2
If you ever go across the sea to Ireland
3
Then maybe at the closing of your day
4
You will sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh
5
And see the sun go down on Galway Bay
6
Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream
7
The women in the meadow making hay
8
And to sit beside a turf fire in the cabin
9
And watch the barefoot gossoons at their play
10
For the breezes blowing o'er the seas from Ireland
11
Are perfumed by the heather as they bloom
12
And the women in the uplands diggin' praties
13
Speak a language that the strangers do not know
14
For the stranger came and tried to teach us their way
15
They scorned us just for being what we are
16
But they might as well go chasing after moonbeams
