An Irish Lullaby

Over in Killarney Many years ago My mother sang a song to me In tones so sweet and low Just a simple little ditty In her good old Irish way And I'd give my world if she could sing That song for me today Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra Too-ra loo-ra lie Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra Hush now don't you cry Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra Too-ra loo-ra lie Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra That's an Irish lullaby Often dreams I wander to that cot again I feel her arms a' huggin' me As when she held me then And I hear her voice a' hummin' To me as in days of yore' When she used to rock me fast asleep Outside our cottage door Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra Too-ra loo-ra lie Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra Hush now don't you cry Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra Too-ra loo-ra lie Too-ra loo-ra loo-ra That's an Irish lullaby
