The Maid of Culmore |
Leaving sweet lovely Derry for fair London town |
There is no finer harbour all around can be found |
Where the children each evening go down to the shore |
And the joy bells are ringing for the maid of Culmore |
The first time I met her she passed me by |
And the next time that I met her she bid me goodbye |
But the last time I met her it broke my heart sore |
For she sailed out of Ireland and away from Culmore |
If I had the power the storms for to rise |
I would blow the wind high and I’d darken the skies |
I would blow the wind higher and salt seas to roar |
For the day that my darling sailed away from Culmore |
To the far shore of Americay my love I 'll go seek |
For it’s there I know no-one and no-one knows me |
And if don’t find her I’ll return home no more |
Like a pilgrim I’ll wander for the maid of Culmore |
