The Star of the Sea
The evening is clear
As I stand by the pier
Looking over at Buncrana and Dunree
And as so often before
Oh, Bhrian, a stor
I pray God that you`re in Heaven
With the Star of the sea

May you peacefully sleep
In the arms of the deep
May the sea that took your life now set you free
And in the dark of the night
With the wind at its height
May you guide the fearful sailor, like the
Star of the sea

So many times I`ve thought about you
This place is not the same without you
May your soul be at rest
May your children be blessed
May you live forever in our memory
May your spirit run wild
Where you ran here as a child
And may your smile light up the Heavens
Like the star of the sea
