The Castle of Dromore Songtext
von Clamavi De Profundis

The October winds lament around
The Castle of Dromore
Yet peace is in her lofty halls
A pháiste ban a stóir
Though autumn leaves
May droop and die
A bud of spring are you

Sing hush-a-bye loo, la loo, lo lan
Hush-a-bye loo, lo la lan

Send no ill will to hinder us
My loving babe and me
Dread spirit of the Blackwater
Clan Eoan′s wild banshee
And Holy Mary pitying us
In heaven for grace doth sue

Sing hush-a-bye loo, la loo, lo lan
Hush-a-bye loo, lo lan


Take time to thrive, my rose of hope
In the garden of Dromore
Take heed, young eaglet, until your wings
Are feathered fit to soar
A little time, and then our land
Is full of things to do

Sing hush-a-bye loo, la loo, lo lan
Hush-a-bye loo, lo lan

The October winds lament around
The Castle of Dromore
Yet peace is in her lofty halls
My loving treasure store
Though autumn leaves may droop and die
A bud of spring are you

Sing hush-a-bye loo, la loo, lo lan
Hush-a-bye loo, lo lan

Sing hush-a-bye loo, la loo, lo lan
Hush-a-bye loo, lo lan...
