Téir Abhaile Riu

Look how the light of the town
 the lights of the town are shining now
 Tonight I'll be dancing around
 I'm off on the road to Galway now
 Look how she's off on the town
 She's off on a search for sailors though
 There's fine fellas here to be found
 She's never been one to stay at home
 Home you'll go and it's there you'll stay
 And you've work to do in the morning
 Give up your dream of going away
 Forget your sailors in Galway
 Téir abhaile riú, téir abhaile riú
 Téir abhaile riú Mhearai
 Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile
 Mar tá do mhargadh déanta
 Come now and follow me down
 Down to the lights of Galway where
 There's fine sailors walking the town
 And waiting to meet the ladies there
 Watch now he'll soon be along
 He's finer than any sailor so
 Come on now pick up your spoons
 He's waiting to hear you play them WHOOO!
 Here today and she's gone tomorrow
 And next she's going to Galway
 Jiggin' around and off to town
 And won't be back until morning
 Téir abhaile riú, téir abhaile riú
 Téir abhaile riú Mhearai
 Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile
 Mar tá do mhargadh déanta
 Off with a spring in my step
 The sailors are searching Galway for
 A young lady such as myself
 For reels and jigs and maybe more
 Stay here and never you mind
 The lights of the town are blinding you
 The sailors they come and they go
 But listen to what's reminding you
 Handsome men surrounding you
 Dancing a reel around you
 Home you'll go and it's there you'll stay
 And you've work to do in the morning
 Give up your dream of going away
 Forget your sailors in Galway
 Téir abhaile riú, téir abhaile riú
 Téir abhaile riú Mhearai
 Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile
 Mar tá do mhargadh déanta
 Listen to the music flow
 I'm falling for the flow of home
 I'm home to dance till dawning
 Téir abhaile riú, téir abhaile riú
 Téir abhaile riú Mhearai
 Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile
 Mar tá do mhargadh déanta
 Stay a while and we'll dance together now
 As the light is falling
 We'll reel away till the break of day
 And dance together till morning
 Téir abhaile riú, téir abhaile riú
 Téir abhaile riú Mhearai
 Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile
 Mar tá do mhargadh déanta
 Téir abhaile riú, téir abhaile riú
 Téir abhaile riú Mhearai
 Téir abhail gus fan sa bhaile
 Mar tá do mhargadh déanta
 do Mhargadh de - do mhargadh déanta
