Subject: RE: Ireland, Mother Ireland
Thanks katlaughing, but that isn't the song...I too did a database search as well as checking some other Irish music sites but to no avail...

More info I forgot in my first thread:

Ireland, Mother Ireland (O'Reilly/Loughborough)

I heard it sung at somewhere (perhaps on Fordham Univ's Irish music program when I lived in White Plains, NY) and to the best of my memory the chorus contains the following:

If you sigh we hear you.
If you weep, we weep.
...etc....
Ireland, Mother Ireland....
...Ever shall we hold you
Dearest, best of all.


Hope that helps narrow the search.
