(Sean Mc Bride/ arranged Paul Brady)
I've just dropped in to see 你 all
I'll only stay awhile
I want to hear how you're getting on
I want to hear 你 smile
I'm happy to be back again
And greet 你 big and small
For there's no place on earth just like
The homes of Donegal
I long to see your smiling children
Standing 由 the door
The kettle boiling on the hearth
As I walk up the floor
And then to see a welcome free
For travellers one and all
For your hearts are like your mountains
In the homes of Donegal
I'd like to stay along with 你
And while away the night
With fairy lore and tales of yore
Beside the turf 火, 消防 bright
And then to see laid out for me
A shake-down 由 the 墙
For there's rest for weary wanderers
In the homes of Donegal
The time has come for me to go
And bid 你 all adieu
For the open highway calls me back
To do these things I do
But when I'm travelling far away
Your friendship I'll recall
And please God I'll soon return unto
The homes of Donegal
Donegal, Pride of all
Donegal, Pride of all
