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-o-bye lu-lo lu-lo-lan
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo-lu
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo lu-lo-lan
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo-lu
Bring no ill will to hinder us
My helpless babe and me
Dread spirits of the Blackwater
Clan Owen's wild banshee
And Holy Mary, pitying us
In heaven for grace doth sue
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo lu-lo-lan
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo-lu
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo lu-lo-lan
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo-lu
Take time to thrive, my ray of hope
In the garden of Dromore
Take heed young eaglet til thy wings
Are feathered fit to soar
A little rest and then the world
Is full of work to do
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo lu-lo-lan
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo-lu
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo lu-lo-lan
Sing hush-o-bye lu-lo-lu
