The Tern And The Swallow - Cara Dillon
When the Cuckoo is calling over woodland and valley
And the Tern and the Swallow flies over our bay
Then it's longing I'll be for the land of my father
Where Bann and black water sweep down to Lough Neagh
A home I have made in the land of the stranger
And it's manys a long year since I left Derry quay
Still I dream of the blooming and the glens of old Ireland
Where Bann and black water sweep down to Lough Neagh
And it'soon I must start and this is my last journey
For my eyes they grow dim and my hair sparse and grey
And it's soon I must follow the Tern and the Swallow
Where Bann and black water sweep down to Lough Neagh
I long for to see the dark waters of Lough Neagh
And I long for to gaze on Slieve Gallion Braes
And I long for to follow the Tern and the Swallow
Where Bann and black water water sweep down to Lough Neagh
And when I return to my native land
In the spring I will hear the Cuckoo sing round Lough Neagh
And I'll be out there waiting for the Tern and the Swallow
Where Bann and black water sweep down to Lough Neagh
And all I ask is a cairn in the land of my father
Where Bann and black water
Sweep down to Lough Neagh
