Mavourneen = My beloved.
Aroon = My dear.

Come back to Erin, Mavourneen, Mavourneen,
Come back, Aroon, to the land of thy birth:
Come with the shamrocks and spring-time Mavourneen,
And its Killarney shall ring with our mirth.

Sure, when we lent ye to beautiful England,
Little we thought of the lone winter days,
Little we thought of the hush of the star shine
Over the mountain, the bluffs and the brays.

CHORUS: Then come back to Erin, Mavourneen, Mavourneen,
Come back again to the land of thy birth,
Come with the shamrocks and spring-time Mavourneen,
And its Killarney shall ring with our mirth.

When by the fireside, I watch the bright embers,
Then all my heart flies away over the sea,
Cravin' to know if my darlin' remembers,
Or if her thoughts may be crossing to me.

CHORUS


Title: Come Back to Erin
Composer: Claribel
