Great Moyola River Lyrics

On the great moyola river where anglers
sport and play
Along the banks young lovers
Still pass the time away
Let the anglers have there pleasure
And the lovers have there dreams
But give to me moyola where it’s just a
Little stream
Chorus
Flow on silver waters
Flow on through ballinascreen
For a little while I’m strolling
Where moyola’s just a stream
Let me ramble oe’r the mountains
Where nature’s still unspoiled
And gaze down on the valley
Where colmcille once toiled

Where the little church of Patrick
Can easily be seen
Close to where that river is just a little
Stream
Let me ramble over the heather
Where the hares and rabbits run
Let me hear the lighter of the children having
Fun
Take me the over to gortin from the cross of
Ballinascreen
You’ll cross that mighty river where it’s just
A little stream
(Chorus again)
When the sun sets over Erin
The land st Patrick blessed
We’ll go for recreation into the shepherds
Rest
Where the hills of carn and nelly
In the pale moonlight they gleam
Across the great moyola where it’s just.a little
Stream
And when my life is closing I’ll say to take my
Pen
And write a few short phrases of a lifetime
In the glen
And lord if you don’t take me and in your home
Sereen
Just lead me by that river where it’s just a
Little stream
