[00:00.00]Kilkelly - De Dannan/Jimmy Keane
[00:05.67]Kilkelly Ireland eighteen and sixty my dear and loving son John
[00:15.59]Your good friend the schoolmaster Pat McNamara's so good
[00:21.96]As to write these words down
[00:25.83]Your brothers have all gone to find work in England
[00:31.55]House is so empty and sad
[00:36.60]Crop of potatoes is sorely infected
[00:41.50]A third to a half of them bad
[00:46.70]And your sister Brigid and Patrick O'Donnell
[00:52.23]Going to be married in June
[00:57.54]Mother says not to work on the railroad
[01:02.67]It sure to come on home soon
[01:12.46]Kilkelly Ireland 18 and 70 my dear and loving son John
[01:22.73]Hello to your Mrs and to your 4 children
[01:28.15]May they grow healthy and strong
[01:33.87]Michael has got in a wee bit of trouble
[01:38.90]I guess that he never will learn
[01:44.53]Because of the dampness there's no turf to speak of
[01:49.74]And now we have nothing to burn
[01:55.66]And Brigid is happy you named a child for her
[02:00.65]And now she's got six of her own
[02:06.10]You say you found work but you don't say
[02:10.05]What kind or when you will be coming home
[02:39.00]Kilkelly Ireland eighteen and eighty dear Michael and John my sons
[02:49.11]I'm sorry to give you the very sad news
[02:54.37]That your dear old mother has gone
[02:59.78]We buried her down at the church in Kilkelly
[03:05.14]Your brothers and Brigid were there
[03:10.53]You don't have to worry she died very quickly
[03:15.95]Remember her in your prayers
[03:21.28]And it's so good to hear that Michael's returning
[03:26.78]With money he's sure to buy land
[03:32.09]For the crop has been poor and the people
[03:36.03]Are selling at any price that they can
[04:04.90]Kilkelly Ireland 18 and 90 my dear and loving son John
[04:14.95]I guess that I must be close on to eighty
[04:20.20]It's thirty years since you're gone
[04:25.51]Because of all of the money you send me
[04:30.97]I'm still living out on my own
[04:36.50]Michael has built himself a fine house
[04:41.85]And Brigid's daughters have grown
[04:47.25]Thank you for sending your family picture
[04:52.71]They're lovely young women and men
[04:57.79]You say that you might even come for a visit
[05:03.50]What joy to see you again
[05:12.90]Kilkelly Ireland 18 and 92 my dear brother John
[05:23.56]I'm sorry that I didn't write sooner to
[05:27.80]Tell you that father passed on
[05:34.14]He was living with brigid she says he was cheerful
[05:39.45]And healthy right down to the end
[05:44.93]Ah you should have seen him play with
[05:48.71]The grandchildren of Pat McNamara your friend
[05:55.79]And we buried him alongside of mother
[06:01.27]Down at the Kilkelly churchyard
[06:06.70]He was a strong and a feisty old man
[06:12.28]Considering his life was so hard
[06:17.72]And it's funny the way he kept talking about you
[06:23.32]He called for you in the end
[06:29.30]Oh why don't you think about coming to visit
[06:34.92]We'd all love to see you again
