1
If you ever go across the sea to Ireland
2
Then maybe at the closing of your day
3
You will sit and watch the moonrise over Claddagh
4
And see the sun go down on Galway Bay
5
Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream
6
The women in the meadows making hay
7
And to sit beside a turf fire in the cabin
8
And watch the barefoot gossoons at their play
9
For the breezes blowing o'er the seas from Ireland
10
Are perfumed by the heather as they blow
11
And the women in the uplands digging praties
12
Speak a language that the strangers do not know
13
For the strangers came and tried to teach their way
14
They scorned us just for being what we are
15
But they might as well go chasing after moonbeams
16
Or light a penny candle from a star
17
And if there is going to be a life hereafter
18
And somehow I am sure there's going to be
19
I will ask my God to let me make my heaven
20
In that dear land across the Irish sea
