Evening in Mount Mellary
I have seen a golden sunset
from the slopes of knockmealdown,
purple shadows gently steering
o'er the rolling hills of brown,
in the trees the thrush and blackbirds
sing there songs of ecstasy,
all is quiet all is peaceful
evening in Mount Mellary.
chorus:
little heaven in the mountains
joy and peace we find in thee,
ever shall our hearts remember
evening in Mount Mellary.
out beyond the dreaming meadows
through the woods and hilltops bare,
steals the songs of holy voices
blending in a goodnight prayer,
o'er on fields across the valley
there calling so tenderly,
all is quiet all is peaceful
evening in Mount Mellary.
