作词 : Ibbotson, Moloney | |
My heart was warm with family love, as I slipped into a chair | |
Beside my Uncle John my daughters 'cross the table there | |
I'd walked the docks in misty rain; a pain was in my legs | |
But I'd seen the dream of kinsmen in the boats of Killybegs | |
The ban'er of my Uncle and my daughters filled the air | |
And the Donegalers next to us were glad that we were there | |
I was kind of quite listening out the window ledge | |
For the music of the harbour, the birds of Killybegs | |
Down the coast not far was Galway, planned the joys from Connemara | |
After supper and a sleep, we would be going there tomorra' | |
I worried if my words would ere be sung by Irishmen | |
Or rot here on the docks, like the fish of Killybegs | |
A radio was playin' though we never heard a word | |
For the rhythm of the music was familiar if absurd | |
A hearkening intensity for silence did I beg | |
Oh what a song was playing in the air of Killybegs | |
I couldn't quite believe it for it sounded rather strange | |
The instruments were different and the key had been changed | |
I reached to turn the volume up, then teeter on my leg | |
A girl from Tipperary sang my song in Killybegs |
