My Own Dear Galway Bay - Larry Cunningham[00:00:00]
Written by:Frank A. Fahy[00:00:00]
It's far away I am today[00:00:08]
From scenes I roamed a boy[00:00:12]
And long ago the hour I know[00:00:17]
I first saw Illinois[00:00:21]
Not time nor tide nor water wide[00:00:25]
Could wean my heart away[00:00:29]
Forever true it fly to you[00:00:33]
My own dear Galway Bay[00:00:37]
Oh grey and bleak by shore and creek[00:00:41]
The rugged rocks abound[00:00:46]
But sweet and green the grass between[00:00:49]
As grows on Irish ground[00:00:54]
But friendship fond all wealth beyond[00:00:58]
And love that lives always[00:01:02]
Bless every home around your foam[00:01:06]
My old dear Galway Bay[00:01:10]
Had I youth's blood and hopeful mood[00:01:23]
And heart of fire once more[00:01:27]
For all the gold the world might hold[00:01:31]
I'd never leave your shore[00:01:35]
I'd live content whatever god sent[00:01:39]
With neighbors old and grey[00:01:43]
And leave my bones 'neath churchyard stones[00:01:47]
Beside you galway bay[00:01:51]
Now[00:01:55]
The blessings of a poor old man[00:01:55]
Be with you night and day[00:01:59]
The blessings of a lonely man[00:02:04]
Whose heart will soon be clay[00:02:08]
'Tis all the heaven I will ask my god[00:02:12]
Upon my dying day[00:02:16]
My soul to soar forever more[00:02:20]
Above you galway bay[00:02:24]
My soul to soar forever more[00:02:28]
Above you galway bay[00:02:32]
