about

A beautiful, haunting traditional song from Ireland.

lyrics

From the sweet port of Derry
To fair London town
There is no finer harbour
All around to be found.
Where the children each evening
Go down by the shore
And they join in the dance
With the maids of Culmore.

And the first time I saw her
She passed me by,
And the next time that I saw her
She'd a tear in her eye,
But the last time I saw her
My heart grieved full sore
For she sailed down Loch Foyle
And away from Culmore.

And had I the power
The storms for to rise
I would blow the winds higher
And darken the skies.
I would blow the winds higher,
Cause the seas for to roar
For the day my love sailed
Far away from Culmore.

And the first time I saw her
She passed me by,
And the next time that I saw her
She'd a tear in her eye,
But the last time I saw her
My heart grieved full sore
For she sailed down Loch Foyle
And away from Culmore.

To the far lands of America
My love I'll go see,
And it's there I'll no no-one
And no-one knows me.
And if I do not find her
I'll return home no more.
Like a pilgrim I will wander
Far away from Culmore.

And the first time I saw her
She passed me by,
And the next time that I saw her
She'd a tear in her eye,
But the last time I saw her
My heart grieved full sore
For she sailed down Loch Foyle
And away from Culmore.
