There's a moon over Ireland, comes in from the sea
Cross the mountains and valleys where the rivers run free
From the days of my childhood, oh I've always known
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home

Go down the one road from Cork to Killarney
And follow it on to Tralee
And you won't be tongue tight when you kiss the Blaney
There's no fairer place you can be

I love you Galway, Limerick and Errill
Sligo and Monaghan, Mayo, Cooraclare
They say it's a long, long way to Tipperary
But that doesn't matter to me

I miss the shadow, the hills of Roscommon
The Greenfields in my memory
And I want to tell all my friends and my family
In Donegal, I'm coming home

I love you Galway, Limerick and Errill
Sligo and Monaghan, Mayo, Cooraclare
They say it's a long, long way to Tipperary
But that doesn't matter to me

There's a moon over Ireland, comes in from the sea
Cross the mountains and valleys where the rivers run free
From the days of my childhood, oh I've always known
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home
