As I'm sitting all alone in the gloaming

It might have been but yesterday

That we watched the fisher's sails all homing

Till the little herring fleet at anchor lay

Then the fisher girls with baskets swinging

Came running down the old stone way

Every lassie to her sailor lad was singing

Ah welcome back to bantry bay

Then we heard the pipers sweet note tuning

And all the lassies turned to hear

As they mingled with a soft voice crooning

Till the music floated down the wooden pier

Save you kindly colleens all said the piper

Hands across and trip it while I play

And the tender sound of song and merry dancing

Stole softly over bantry bay

As I'm sitting all alone in the gloaming

The shadows of the past draw near

And I see the lovely faces round me

That used to glad the old front pier

Some have gone upon their last logged homing

Some are left but they are old and gray

And we're waiting for the tide in the gloaming

To sail upon the great highway

To the land of rest unending

All peacefully from bantry bay
