Oh, we now must say farewell
But with warmth I will tell
Our meeting will stay with us 'til the end
So fill a parting glass, this song must be our last
In the glowing hope we'll someday meet again
We sat that night 'til the morning
Singing "Mairidh gaol is ceol"
If love and music live, we may never die at all
Many winters have passed on
Since those summer nights are gone
But our lives are richer for the times we've had
And in the evening of our days
Though our time was soon away
We'll recall the olden glories and be glad
We sat that night 'til the morning
Singing "Mairidh gaol is ceol"
If love and music live, we may never die at all
We sat that night till the morning
Singing "Mairidh gaol is ceol"
If love and music live, then we may never die at all
Our destinies divide
And therefore live we all
All live to die, and rise to fall
No sadness now or blame
But a memory and a flame
To burn beyond the passing of us all
We sat that night 'til the morning
Singing "Mairidh gaol is ceol"
If love and music live, then we may never die at all
Oh, we sat that night 'til the morning
Singing "Mairidh gaol is ceol"
If love and music live, we may never die at all
