[00:27.44]Your hills and dales and flowery vales [00:34.32]That lie near the Moorlough Shore [00:41.28]Your winds that blow through Borden's Grove [00:48.90]Shall I ever see you more? [00:55.10]Where the primrose grows and the violets blow [01:01.95]Where the trout and salmon play [01:08.37]With my line and hook, delight I took [01:15.67]But to spend my youthful days [01:22.65]As I passed out to see my girl [01:29.61]And to hear what she would say [01:36.55]For to see if she'd take pity on me [01:43.43]Before I would go away [01:50.42]She said, "I vowed an Irish lad [01:57.24]And he was my only joy [02:03.40]And ever since I saw his face [02:10.99]I love my soldier boy" [02:21.45]"Perhaps your soldier boy was lost [02:28.60]While crossing the raging main [02:34.97]Or perhaps he has gone with some other girl [02:42.50]You might never see him again" [02:49.70]"Well, if my Irish boy is lost [02:55.86]He's the one I do adore [03:02.19]And for seven long years I'll wait for him [03:09.67]On the banks of the Moorlough Shore" [03:44.33]Farewell to see Clare's castles grand [03:51.13]Farewell to foggy hills [03:57.77]Where the beaded webs like bleaching silk [04:04.93]And the bubbling stream runs still [04:11.71]Near there I spent my youthful days [04:18.88]But alas, they are all o'er [04:25.31]And cruelty has banished me [04:32.70]Far away from the Moorlough Shore
