    Lyrics
    Walking all the day, near tall towers
    where falcons build their nests
    Silver winged they fly,
    they know the call of freedom in their breasts
    Saw Black Head against the sky
    where twisted rocks they run down to the sea
    Living on your western shore,
    saw summer sunsets, asked for more
    I stood by your Atlantic sea
    and sang a song for Ireland
    Drinking all the day in old pubs
    where fiddlers love to play
    Someone touched the bow,
    he played a reel
    it seemed so fine and gay
    Stood on Dingle beach
    and cast in wild foam we found Atlantic bass
    Living on your western shore,
    saw summer sunsets asked for more
    I stood by your Atlantic sea
    and sang a song for Ireland
    Talking all the day with true friends
    who try to make you stay
    Telling jokes and news,
    singing songs to pass the night away
    Watched the Galway salmon run
    like silver dancing darting in the sun
    Living on your western shore
    saw summer sunsets, asked for more
    I stood by your Atlantic sea
    and sang a song for Ireland
    Dreaming in the night I saw a land
    where no man had to fight
    Waking in your dawn
    I saw you crying in the morning light
    Lying where the falcons fly,
    they twist and turn all in you e'er blue sky
    Living on your western shore,
    saw summer sunsets asked for more
    I stood by your Atlantic sea
    and sang a song for Ireland

    As a Scot I adore this song of homeland sung by the immortal Luke Kelly. It drives me to tears with its emotions which come through so strong with Luke’s gravelly voice

    Ian that is a wonderful assemblage with Luke's last recorded song. My cousin Tommy was Luke's best friend, Luke was best man at his wedding and the two of them met among others and shook hands with, Muhammad Ali circa 1972 in Dublin. Ali said he wanted to shake Luke's hand out of respect to Luke for his artistic contribution to black civil rights. Luke was equally over joyed to meet him. Respect to you and well done on this piece. His picture at the opening is brilliantly quintessential Luke.
