When they told me that Ireland was heaven, I said, "That's where I'm longing to stay." Then an emigrant voice said "that's my land if you please Sir, I'll show you the way." You will see smiling faces that greet you with a "Cead Mile Failte" at store and the candle burns bright in the window of a cabin with only one door. When you see the moon rise over Claddagh and the golden sand kisses the sea then you're on the right road Sir for heaven for it's heaven around Galway Bay. In the church on the hill in the moonlight you can hear a sweet angel voice sing It's the angel whose heart I might gladden when I give her my gold Claddagh ring. And the carling who smiles so divinely at the sound of the bell stops to pray just you turn and say"God let she kindly" and to heaven she'll show you the way. And the old-fashioned lady who greets you says "Come in Sir, you're welcome to stay." then you're on the right road Sir for heaven for it's heaven around Galway Bay. then you're on the right road Sir for heaven for it's heaven around Galway Bay.
