The grey dawn is breaking

The horn of the hunter is heard on the hill

The lark from her light wing

The bright dew is shaking

Kathleen Mavourneen what

Slumbering still

Oh hast thou forgotten

How soon we must sever

Oh hast thou forgotten this day

We must part

It may be for years

And it may be forever

Oh why art thou silent

Thou voice of my heart

It may be for years

And it may be forever

Then why art thou silent

Awake from thy slumbers

The blue mountains glow

In the sun's golden light

Ah where is the spell

That once hung on my numbers

Arise in thy beauty

Thou star of my night

Mavourneen Mavourneen

My sad tears are falling

To think that from Erin

And thee I must part

It may be for years

And it may be forever

Then why art thou silent

Thou voice of my heart

It may be for years

And it may be forever

Then why art thou silent
