\beginverse
|
|
|
|
|
In the evening sun when my daily work was done
|
|
|
|
|
I rambled to the seashore for a walk
|
|
|
|
|
And I been all alone, I sat down upon a stone
|
|
|
|
|
For to gaze on the scenes of New York
|
|
|
|

\beginchorus
|
|
|
|
|
Oh then, Érin grá mo chroí, you're the only one for me
|
|
|
|
|
You're the fairest that my eyes did e'er behold
|
|
|
|
|
You're the bright star of the west, the land St. Patrick blessed
|
|
|
|
|
You're the dear little isle so far away
|
|
|

\beginverse
|
|
|
|
|
'Twas on a cold, cold winter's night with the turf fire burning bright
|
|
|
|
|
And the snowflakes fallen on a winter's day
|
|
|
|
|
And I been all alone, I sat down on my own
|
|
|
|
|
In the dear little isle so far away
|
|

\beginverse
|
|
|
|
|
The day that I did part, sure it broke my mother's heart
|
|
|
|
|
Will I ever see my dear folks anymore?
|
|
|
|
|
Not until my bones are laid in the cold and silent grave
|
|
|
|
|
In the dear little isle so far away
|
|
|
