Teelin Harbour (Song)

Fishing for the herring
The muscle straining men
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
Set out from Teelin Harbour
Currach to the wind
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go laugh
Some dog in the evening
Warned us stay at home
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
Now we're on the sea a rollin'
The wind it howls and moans
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath

Well, it's time to bring the nets in
Heave and haul the line
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
Quickly on your life boys
We'll be sinking in the brine
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
The gulls, they're all crying
Heading for the shore
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
And the wind is rising quickly
Bear down on your oar
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath

Manannán's on the move now
White horses cap the waves
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go laugh
Above the stout sea churning
Below a watery grave
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
The lights of home they glisten
As distant stars they shine
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
And our family they're all praying
For some signal or some sign
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath

Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
Tá an stoirm ag teacht go tapaigh,
Beidh an fharraige tharainn go luath
