Éireann I Mo Chroí

Of all the time I have spent away

Year on year, day by day

I’ll take with me fine memories

Dear Éireann’s Isle in my heart you’ll always be

Éireann i mo chroí, Éireann i mo chroí

 

Do you cry for the absence I’ve left behind

For when I dream, I dream about the days gone by

Missing you out on that long hard road

Dear Éireann’s Isle lead me back home

 

Can you hear a calling in the wind

Voices over waters thin

From far away o’er atlantic seas

Calling out, calling me

Éireann i mo chroí, Éireann i mo chroí

All that you gave is all I’ll ever need

Far distant cry from you to me

And if you don’t receive my call

Please always know I’m never gone

 

You can see who she’s become today

Blue eyed, weary, yet unafraid

But a part of her will always be

In the green, green grass of that wee county

Éireann i mo chroí, Éireann i mo chroí

Of all the time I have spent away,

Year on year, day by day

I’ll take with me fine memories

Dear Éireann’s isle in my heart you’ll always be

Éireann i mo chroí, Éireann i mo chroí

Éireann i mo chroí, Éireann i mo chroí

Éireann i mo chroí, Éireann i mo chroí
