Mo Chara Dhil – My Dear Friend

When I first met you I didn’t know that we’d click
You were patient, kind of quiet
And I was used to living quick
But a hand reached out and guided us
As I look bach that day
And I heard a song of friendship start to play

Chorus
Mo chara dhil, Mo chara dhil
Mo chara dhil, My dear friend

With a smile you’d always greet me
As we’d walk those avenues
Sharing secrets of our yesterdays
And unlocking our hidden truths
You had the gift of perfect vision
Seeing God in everything
Smiling sweetly when the birds began to sing

Chorus

How you loved your precious Ireland
Speaking of it so tenderly
In your nature tongue you’d teach the young ‘bout their
Path through history
We’re both living different lives now
You’re so far away from me
What I’d give dear friend to have you here with me
