lyrics

Castlegregory
Words and Music by Lawrence C. Connolly

See the sails of Castlegregory
Reflected in mirrored sea.
Hear the men singing on the quay,
Echoing chants, calling me.

On the shore a lonely woman stand
Hair tied back, braided bands.
Hear her voice calling to the sails
Echoing chants, soulful wails.

In the dawn the jagged sea turns white,
Drawing the ships made ready in the night.
On the deck young Lorcan trims the sails,
Singing with the men, chantey wails.

See the sails of Castlegregory
Reflected in the mirrored sea.
Hear the men singing on the quay,
Echoing chants, calling me.
