How I miss you, my precious Éire!
My heart swells within me
With longing for your shores
A thousand times I hear your name
But suddenly, it strikes a chord!
Upon my soul you play a song
I never meant to be so long!
I did not lie when I did say "My life you have forever changed".
My wife and I shall hand in hand
Dance throughout your hills and moorlands
Our family will walk your shores
My children, your embrace adore
Not long, my dear
Not long and then, I am coming back again.
My heart swells within me
With longing for your shores
A thousand times I hear your name
But suddenly, it strikes a chord!
Upon my soul you play a song
I never meant to be so long!
I did not lie when I did say "My life you have forever changed".
My wife and I shall hand in hand
Dance throughout your hills and moorlands
Our family will walk your shores
My children, your embrace adore
Not long, my dear
Not long and then, I am coming back again.
