come back to erin - d. mcgann lyrics
[chorus]
come back to erin, mavourneen, mavourneen;
come back, aroon, to the land of my birth:
come with the shamrocks and spring*time mavourneen
and its k!llarney shall ring with our mirth
[verse 1]
sure, when we lent ye to beautiful england
little we thought of the lone winter days
little we thought of the hush of the star shine
over the mountain, the bluffs and the brays!
[chorus]
come back to erin, mavourneen, mavourneen
come back again to the land of my birth
come back to erin, mavourneen, mavourneen
and its k!llarney shall ring with our mirth
[verse 2]
over the green sea, mavourneen, mavourneen
long shone the white sail that bore thee away;
riding the white waves that fair summеr morn in’
just like a may*flow’r a*float on the bay
o, but my heart sank whеn clouds came between us
like a grey curtain the rain falling down
hid from my sad eyes the path o’er the ocean
far, far away where my colleen had flown
[chorus]
come back to erin, mavourneen, mavourneen
come back again to the land of my birth
come back to erin, mavourneen, mavourneen
and its k!llarney shall ring with our mirth
[verse 3]
o may the angels, o wakin’ and sleepin’
watch o’er my bird in the land far away;
and it’s my pray’rs will consign to their keepin’
care o’ my jewel by night and by day
when by the fireside i watch the bright embers
then all my heart flies to england and thee
cravin’ to know if my darlin’ remembers
or if her thoughts may be crossin’ to me
[chorus]
come back to erin, mavourneen, mavourneen
come back again to the land of my birth
come back to erin, mavourneen, mavourneen
and its k!llarney shall ring with our mirth
