Lyrics

Come all you comrades you and me
We’ll go this night our girls to see
And with us we will whiskey bring
And the praise of Malin we will sing

To you my girl I bid adieu
When I’ll return love I do not know
My care is still wherever I go
I love the Hibernia below

The land so dear I do adore
These Malin Braes and Strabreaga’s shore
Where the rippling waves does tune their time
On a summers evening as we amuse our minds

To you my girl I bid adieu
When I’ll return love I do not know
My care is still wherever I go
I love the Hibernia below

The land so dear that gave me birth
                          ….. of joy and mirth
Where it will come ‘round with our …. boy
When the boys of Malin and dance with joy

To you my girl I bid adieu
When I’ll return love I do not know
My care is still wherever I go
I love the Hibernia below

To you my girl it grieves me sore
A courting you love I must give o’er
For many’s the night in the pale moon light
I rolled you in my arms tight

To you my girl I bid adieu
When I’ll return love I do not know
My care is still wherever I go
I love the Hibernia below
