Three Leaf Shamrock ----- Dermot O'Brien + Lyrics

In the dock, a ship was anchored
On a bright St Patrick's Day
On the quay a lass was sighing
For her lover going away

In her hand she held an emblem
And its small green leaves were three
And her parting words were "darling,
Look at these and think of me"

Three leaf shamrock I adore thee
Your three leaves I love to see
When there's brighter days in Ireland
I'll come home and marry thee.

Just before the ship had started
As she laid her land on mine
Just before that we had parted
She looked with loving eyes so kind.

To my coat she pinned an emblem
And it's small green leaves were three
And her parting words were darling
Look at these and think of me

But tonight I am an exile
Far from home, and far from thee
Next my heart I wear your token
No matter where I be

And although the sea's divide us
And your face i might never see
When there's brighter days in Ireland
I'll come home and marry thee.

Three leaf shamrock I adore thee
Your three leaves I love to see
When there's brighter days in Ireland
I'll come home and marry thee.
