You may travel far far from your own native home

Far away o'er the mountains, far away o'er the foam

But of all the fine places that I've ever seen

There's none to compare with the cliffs of Dooneen



Take a view o'er the mountains, fine sights you'll see 

there

You'll see the high rocky mountains on the west coast of 

Clare

The towns of Kilkee and Kilrush can be seen

From the high Rocky slopes of the Cliffs of Dooneen




Fare thee well to Dooneen, Fare thee well for a while

And to all the fine people I'm leaving behind

To the streams and the meadows where late I have been

And the high rocky slopes of the Cliffs of Dooneen



You may travel for far from your own native home

Far away o'er the mountains, far away o'er the foam

But of all the fine places that l've ever seen

There's none to compare with the Cliffs of Dooneen
