October winds lament around the Castle of Dromore
Yet peace is in its lofty halls, a pháisde bán a stór,
Though autumn leaves may droop and die,
A bud of spring are you –
Sing hushaby, lul, lul, lo, lo, lan,
Sing hushaby, lul, lul, loo.

Bring no ill wind to hinder us, my helpless babe and me –
Dread spirit of Blackwater banks, Clan Eoin’s wild banshee,
And Holy Mary pitying us, in Heaven for grace doth sue
Sing hushaby, lul, lul, lo, lo, lan,
Sing hushaby, lul, lul, loo.

Take time to thrive, my Rose of hope,
In the garden of Dromore
Take heed, young Eagle – till thy wings
Are weathered fit to soar;
A little time and then our land
Is full of things to do
Sing hushaby, lul, lul, lo, lo, lan,
Sing hushaby, lul, lul, loo.

The October winds lament around the Castle of Dromore
Yet peace is in her lofty halls, my loving treasure store
Though autumn leaves may droop and die, a bud of spring are you
Sing hushabye loo, low loo, low lan
Hushabye loo, low loo

Dread spirits all of black water, Clan Owen’s wild banshee
Bring no ill wind to him nor us, my helpless babe and me
And Holy Mary pitying us to Heaven for grace doth sue

Take time to thrive, my ray of hope, in the garden of Dromore
Take heed, young eaglet, till thy wings are feathered fit to soar
A little rest and then the world is full of work to do
A little rest and then the world is full of work to do
