Tura Lura - Shannon
from the album Angel Child: Lullabies & Lovesongs(released: Apr. 2006)

Over in Kilarney
many year ago
my mother sang a song to me
in tones so sweet and low
just a simple little diddy
in her dear old Irish way
and I'de give the world if she could sing
that song to me today

Tura lura lura
tura lura lie
tura lura lura
hush now don't you cry
tura lura lura
tura lura lie
tura lura lura
that's an Irish lullaby

Oft in dreams I wonder
to that cot again
I feel her arms a huggin me
as when she held me then
and I hear her voice a hummin
to me in days of yore
when she used to rock me fast asleep
outside the cabin door
