 You may travel  far far from your own  native home
 Far away  oer the mountains far away  oer the foam
 But of all  the fine places that I've  ever seen,
 There's none  can compare  with the cliffs  of Dooneen
 Take a view  oer the mountains  fine sights  you'll see there
 You'll see the high  rocky mountains on the West  coast of Clare
 The towns  of Kilrush and Kilkee  can be seen
 From the high  rocky slopes  round the cliffs  of Dooneen
 It s a nice  place to be  on a fine  Summer's day
 Watching all  the wild flowers that ne'er  do decay
 The hare  and lofty pheasant are plain  to be seen
 Making homes  for their young  round the cliffs  of Dooneen
 Fare thee well  to Dooneen  fare thee well  for a while
 And to all  the fine people I'm leaving  behind
 To the streams  and the meadows where late  I have been
 And the high  rocky slopes  round the cliffs of  Dooneen
