You may travel far from your own native home Far away o'er the mountains far away o'er the foam But of all the fine places that I've ever been There's none can compare with the cliffs of Dooneen It's a nice place to be on a fine summer's day Watching all the wild flowers that ne'er do decay Oh the hare and the pheasant are plain to be seen Making homes for their young round the cliffs of Dooneen Take a view o'er the mountain fine sites you'll see there Yes in a high rocky mountain in the west coast of Clair Oh the towns of Kilkee and Kilrush can be seen From the high rocky slopes round the cliffs of Dooneen So fare thee well to Dooneen fare thee well for a while And althoug we are parted by the ragin sea wild Once again I will wander with my Irisjh colleen Round the high rocky slopes of the cliffs of Dooneen
