[00:16.52]It being in the springtime and the small birds they were singing,
[00:24.92]Down by yon shady harbour I carelessly did stray,
[00:33.42]The the thrushes they were warbling,
[00:38.01]The violets they were charming,
[00:41.68]To view fond lovers talking,
[00:46.41]A while I did delay.
[00:50.18]She said, my dear don't leave me all for another season,
[00:58.94]Though fortune does be pleasing I 'll go along with you,
[01:07.40]I 'll forsake friends and relations and bid this Irish nation,
[01:15.87]And to the bonny Bann banks forever I 'll bid adieu.
[01:24.71]He said, my dear don't grieve or yet annoy my patience,
[01:32.59]You know I love you dearly the more I'm going away,
[01:41.17]I'm going to a foreign nation to purchase a plantation,
[01:49.72]To comfort us hereafter all in Amerika y.

[02:12.75]Then after a short while a fortune does be pleasing,
[02:21.57]I'will cause them for smile at our late going away,
[02:29.95]We'll be happy as Queen Victoria,
[02:34.60]All in her greatest glory,
[02:38.48]We'll be drinking wine and porter all in Amerika y.
[02:46.49]If you were in your bed lying and thinking on dying,
[02:55.50]The sight of the lovely Bann banks,
[03:00.31]Your sorrow you'd give o'er,
[03:03.85]Or if were down one hour,
[03:08.53]Down in yon shady bower,
[03:12.60]Pleasure would surround you,
[03:17.21]You'd think on death no more.
[03:19.64]Wu...

[03:37.84]Then fare you well, sweet Cragie Hills,
[03:42.15]Where often times I've roved,
[03:46.83]I never thought my childhood days I 'd part you any more,
[03:54.83]Now we're sailing on the ocean for honour and promotion,
[04:04.30]And the bonny boats are sailing,
[04:08.29]Way down by Doorin shore.
