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
