DUBLIN BAY
Words by Mrs. Crawford. Music by Geo. Barker.
Chicago: National Music Co., [no date]

1. They sail'd away in a gallant bark,
Roy Neal and his fair young bride.
They had ventur'd all in that bounding ark,
That danc'd on the silv'ry tide.
Roy Neal, he clasp'd his weeping bride,
And he kiss'd the tears away,
And he watched the shore recede from sight
Of his own sweet Dublin Bay.

2. Three days they sail'd when a storm arose,
And the light'ning swept the deep,
When the thunder crash broke the short repose
Of the weary sea-boy's sleep.
Roy Neal, he clasp'd his weeping bride,
And he kiss'd the tears away:
"O Love, 'twas a fearful hour," he cried,
"When we left sweet Dublin Bay."

3. On the crowded deck of that doomèd ship,
Some fell in their meek despair,
But some more calm, with a holier lip,
Sought the God of the storm in pray'r.
"She has struck on a rock," the seamen cried,
In their breath of their wild dismay,
And the ship went down with that fair young bride,
That sail'd from Dublin Bay.
