A traditional Irish song

lyrics

A Stór mo Chroí

A stór mo chroí when you’re far away from the home that you’ll soon be leaving,
’tis many is the time by night and by day that your heart will be sorely grieving.
For the stranger’s land may be bright and fair and rich in its treasures golden,
you’ll pine, I know, for the long long ago and the love that is never olden.


A stór mo chroí in the stranger’s land there is plenty of wealth and wailing Where gems adorn the great and the grand there are faces with hunger paling.
When the road is toilsome and hard to tread
when the lights of their cities blind you
oh, turn a stór to the eastern shore
and the ones that you leave behind you.


A stór mo chroí in the evening mist
o’er mountain and sea is falling
oh then turn away from the throng and list and then maybe you’ll hear me calling.
For the sound of a voice that I’ll sorely miss for somebody’s quick returning
A rún a rún, oh come back soon
to the love that is always burning.
