W: A stor mo chroi when you're far away
W: From the home you will soon be leaving
W: It's many's the time by night and by day
W: When your heart will be sorely grieving
W: For the stranger's land may be bright and fair
W: Rich in its treasures golden
W: But you'll pine I know for days long long ago
W: And the one that is never olden
W: A stor mo chroi in the stranger's land
W: There is plenty of wealth and wailing
W: Where gems adorn the great and the grand
W: Where the faces with hunger paling
W:
W: When the road it is tiresome and hard to tread
W: And the lights of their cities blind you
W: Oh turn a stor to Erin's shore
W: And the one that you leave behind you
W: A stor mo chroi when the evening mist
W: Over mountain and sea is falling
W: Oh turn a stor and then you list
W: And maybe you will hear me calling
W: For the sound of a voice you will surely miss
W: Somebody speedily returning
W: A run a run won't you come back soon
W: To the one that will always love you
