The Tern and the Swallow
When the Cuckoo is calling
over woodland and valley
And the Tern and the Swallow
flies over our bay
Then it's longing I'll be for the
land of my father
Where Bann and black water
sweep down to Lough Neagh
A home I have made in the
land of the stranger
And it's manys a long year
since I left Derry quay
Still I dream of the blooming
and the glens of old Ireland
Where Bann and black water
sweep down to Lough Neagh
And it'soon I must start and
this is my last journey
For my eyes they grow dim
and my hair sparse and grey
And it's soon I must follow the
Tern and the Swallow
Where Bann and black water
sweep down to Lough Neagh
I long for to see the dark
waters of Lough Neagh
And I long for to gaze on
Slieve Gallion Braes
And I long for to follow the
Tern and the Swallow
Where Bann and black water water
sweep down to Lough Neagh
And when I return to my
native land
In the Spring I will hear the
Cuckoo sing round
Lough Neagh
And I'll be out there waiting
for the Tern and the Swallow
Where Bann and black water
sweep down to Lough Neagh
And all I ask is a cairn in the
land of my father
Where Bann and black water
sweep down to Lough Neagh
