In Derry Vale (The Derry Air) Maureen Hegarty




Title:
In Derry Vale (The Derry Air) Maureen Hegarty

Description:
"In Derry Vale" These are the first words I learned to The Derry Air. I will always remember I was at primary school and I had never even heard of "Danny Boy" Most of the pictures I took with my little digital camera. . IN DERRY VALE In Derry Vale beside the singing river So oft I strayed a many years ago And culled at noon the golden daffodillies That came with spring to set the world aglow Oh Derry vale my thoughts are ever turning To your bread stream and fairy circled lea For your green Isle my exiled heart is yearning So far away across the sea. In Derry Vale amid the Foyle's dark waters The salmon leap above the surging weir The seabirds call I still can hear them calling In night's long dreams of those so dear. Oh tarrying years fly faster ever faster I long to see the vale beloved so well I long to know that I am not forgotten And there at home in peace to dwell. The lovely accompaniment is played by Elizabeth Bicker.
