Oh Oh
The green and red of Mayo,
I can see it still
Its soft and cragy boglands,
its tall majestic hills

Where the ocean kisses Ireland
the waves caress its shores
Oh the feelin' that came over me,
stay forever more

From its costal waters I can see Crogh Patricks Creek,
where one Sunday every summer, the pilgrims climb the reek
where Saint Patrick in his solitude
looked out across Clew bay
with the ringin' of his bell
called the people there to pray

Oh take me to Clare Island
the home of Grainne Wales i
ts waters have the fishes,
from the herring to the whale

Now I must depart it
