An Irish Lullaby

歌詞

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 l'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..."
