Castle of Dromore


Harold Boulton            


The October winds lament
Around the castle of Dromore
Yet peace is in her lofty halls,
My loving treasure store.
Though autumn leaves may droop and die
A bud of spring are you.

Sing hush-a-by lull-a-loo, la lan,
Sing hush-a-by lull-a-loo.

Bring no ill will to hinder us
My helpless babe and me
Dread spirits of the Blackwater,
Clan Eoen's wild banshee
And Holy Mary pitying us
In Heaven for grace doth sue.

Sing hush-a-by lull-a-loo, la lan,
Sing hush-a-by lull-a-loo.

Take time to thrive my ray of hope
In the garden of Dromore
Take heed young eaglet
Till thy wings are feathered fit to soar
A little rest and then the world
Is full of work to do.

Sing hush-a-by loo,
La-lo, la lan sing hush-a-by loo la lo.
