An Irish Lullaby
CELTIC THUNDER · Emmet Cahill's Ireland 2017 · Track 02 of 10
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 this day
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, 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
