October winds lament
Around the castle of Dromore
Yet peace is in her lofty halls,
My loving treasure store
Though autumn leaves may droop and die,
A bud of spring are you
Sing hushabye loo, low loo, low lan
Hushabye loo, low loo


Dread spirits all of black water,
Clan Owen's wild banshee
Bring no ill wind to him nor us,
My helpless babe and me
Sing hushabye loo, low loo, low lan
Hushabye loo, low loo


And Holy Mary pitying us
To Heaven for grace doth sue
Take time to thrive, my ray of hope,
In the garden of Dromore
Sing hushabye loo, low loo, low lan
Hushabye loo, low loo


Take heed, young eaglet, till thy wings
Are feathered fit to soar
A little rest and then
The world is full of work to do
A little rest and then
The world is full of work to do
Sing hushabye loo, low loo, low lan
Hushabye loo, low loo
