Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

Here’s to Donegal and her people brave and tall
\nHere’s to Antrim, to Leitrim and to Derry
\nHere’s to Cavan and to Louth, here’s to Carlow in the South
\nHere’s to Longford, to Waterford, and Kerry<\/p>\n

Chorus:
\nThen clink your glasses, clink
\n‘Tis a toast for all to drink
\nAnd let every voice join in the chorus
\nFor Ireland is our home
\nAnd wherever we may roam
\nWe’ll be true to the dear land that bore us<\/p>\n

Here’s to Tyrone, where O’Neill long held his own
\nHere’s to Monaghan, Fermanagh and Kildare, boys!
\nHere’s to her whose stroke broke the hated Penal yoke
\nAnd you know that’s the brave County Clare, boys<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

Here’s to Sligo and to Down, and Armagh of old renown
\nHere’s to Kilkenny famed in story
\nHere’s to Wexford by the sea, that near set old Ireland free
\nAnd here’s to Royal Meath in all her glory<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

Here’s to Galway and Mayo, that never feared a foe
\nHere’s to Wicklow, its peaks and its passes
\nHere’s to Limerick famed to all for its well-defended wall
\nAnd still more for the beauty of its lasses<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

Here’s to gallant Cork, the next county to New York
\nHere’s to Roscommon bright and airy
\nHere’s to Westmeath, where a tyrant scarce can breathe
\nAnd here’s to unconquered Tipperary<\/p>\n

Chorus<\/p>\n

Queens County too we’ll toast, and Kings for both can boast
\nThey are spots the invaders got some trouble in!
\nAnd now to finish up, fill a bright and brimming cup
\nAnd we’ll drink, boys, to jolly little Dublin!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
