From sweet Londonderry to the fair London town
There is no other like her anywhere to be found
Where the childrens are smiling and playing round the shore
And the joy bells are ringing for the maid of Coolmore
The first time I saw her she passed me on by
And the next time I saw her she bade me goodbye
And the last time I saw her she grieved my heart so
As she sailed down the Foyle and away from Coolmore
Oh, had I the power the storms for to arise
I would let the wind blow, I would darken the skies
I would let the wind blow and the salt tides to roar
To the day that my darling sailed away from Coolmore
To the far parts of Americay I will go my love to see
And I will know no one, nor no one knows me
And if I don't find her, I'll return here no more
Like an exile I will wander for the maid of Coolmore
Like an exile I will wander for the maid of Coolmore
Like an exile I will wander for the maid of Coolmore
