Farewell Killarney Lyrics

Kiss me Killarney darling
Don't let you're heart grow sad
Hark! To the bagpipes calling
Hark! To the tramp of feet

Hark! To my commrads calling
Calling your soldier lad
Somebody's tears are falling
No one for her to meet

Just like a shamrock pining
Sweet with morning dew
Hold up your head Killarney
Smile tho' your heart will ache

So are the teardrops shining
Deep in your eyes of blue
Never a word of blarney
Softens the news they break

Chorus:
Farewell Killarney
Smile through your tears
Don't mind the blarney
I gave in the bygone years
Acushla!

Kiss me, Mavoreen
Just for love's sweet sake
Bye and bye we'll meet
By Killarney's Lake! Lake!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
