Karaoké Song for Ireland De Dannan & Mary Black

Walking all the day near tall towers where falcons build their nests

Silver winged they fly they know the call of freedom in their breasts

Soar Black Head against the sky between the rocks that run down to the sea

Living on your western shore saw summer sunsets asked for more

I stood by your Atlantic sea and sang a song for Ireland

Talking all the day with true friends who try to make you stay

Telling jokes and news singing songs to pass the night away

Watched the Galway Salmon run like silver dancing darting in the sun

Living on your western shore saw summer sunsets asked for more

I stood by your Atlantic sea and sang a song for Ireland

Drinking all the day in old pubs where fiddlers love to play

Someone touched the bow he played a reel it seemed so grand and gay

Stood on Dingle beach and cast in wild foam we found Atlantic Bass

Living on your western shore saw summer sunsets asked for more

I stood by your Atlantic sea and sang a song for Ireland

Dreaming in the night

I saw a land where no man had to fight

Waking in your dawn

I saw you crying in the morning light

Lying where the Falcons fly they twist and turn all in you e'er blue sky

Living on your western shore saw summer sunsets asked for more

I stood by your Atlantic sea and I sang a song for Ireland
