Colin Finn and Katydid were born beside the sea
Near fields of emerald bright as far as eyes could see
Ladd and Lass side by side, running hand and hand
The innocence of youth fulfilled for the few who understand
Through the Eyes of the Emerald Isle, a lock of hair and a knowing smile
Years passed and a romance sprung like a twig into a tree
Roots they wind, deeply entwined, forming love, eventually
Hands of friends join hearts of love, under crown of loyalty
Colin pledged his heart to Kate in the greens upon a knee
Before the time their hands could fast, the Longships had arrived
To plunder coasts, and burn the land, to steal the Irish pride
May almighty God keep thee safe from the siege upon us now
She kissed his cheek and traced the Cross upon his furrowed brow
Through the Eyes of the Emerald Isle, now off ye go with a mournful smile
And the sea it cried that day,  through the Eyes of the Emerald Isle
They say the heart's the strongest muscle, Oleh olih olih oleh
The winds of time they shall remember, Oleh olih oleh
As the sanguine sun set upon the Cliffs of Moher
The balefires illuminated the treachery of war
His heart had traveled o'er hill and back to Katie's door
But ne'er again their eyes would meet - for Colin lived no more
Through the Eyes of the Emerald Isle, another loss and a tortured smile
And the sea ran red that night, through the Eyes of the Emerald Isle
