Irish Lullaby - The Lorient
Over in Killarney
Many years ago
Me Mither sang a song to me
In tones so sweet and low
Just a simple little ditty
In her good 'ould' Irish way
And I'd give the world if she could sing
That song to me today
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral hush now don't you cry
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral that's an irish lullaby
Oft in dreams I wander
To that cot again
I feel her arms a-huggin' me
As when she held me then
And I hear her voice a-hummin'
To me as in days of yore
When she used to rock me fast asleep
Outside the cabin door
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Hush now don't you cry
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
Too-ra-loo-ra-li
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
That's an irish lullaby
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral
That's an irish lullaby
