Lyrics My Own Donegal - Sean Wilson

Where the blue Atlantic ocean meets the shores of Donegal
In that little north west corner of our land
See the blue stacked mountain range majestic Garigo, you'll know that you're in heaven when you stand
When the heather is in bloom on the hillside
And the streams through the glens are running clear
There's a welcome to be found for the stranger
With a smile and a call of good cheer
Land of ONeil and ODonnell
Famed in story and song
From old Mallon Head to Bally Shannon
From Dunlow to where the Foil flows along
Your people so kind and so gentle
Your mountains and valleys so tall
I'll keep in my heart if I must be apart
From you my own Donegal
Instrumental
To hear once again old voices I love
Greet me in their own native tongue
To stroll once again through mountains and glens
And relive the happy days when I was young
Most of all there's a girl whose been waiting
She'd greet me with arms open wide
In the mornin' we will meet and watch the fishin' fleet
That sail from Tilly Bay with the tide
Land of ONeil and ODonnell
Famed in story and song
From old Mallon Head to Bally Shannon
From Dunlow to where the Foil flows along
Your people so kind and so gentle
Your mountains and valleys so tall
I'll keep in my heart if I must be apart
From you my own Donegal
I'll keep in my heart if I must be apart
From you my own Donegal
