Try it again! [Chorus] Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Fal dee fal o ho ro air fa la la lay [Verse 1: Ciarán Bourke] The song that I sing's a song of laughter and love There's a tang o' the sea and blue from heaven above Of reason there's none and why should there be forby? With fire in my blood and toe, and a light in the eye [Chorus] Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Fal dee fal o ho ro air fa la la lay [Verse 2: Ciarán Bourke] The heather's ablaze with bloom and the myrtle is sweet There's a song in the air, the road's a song at our feet So step it along as light as a bird on the wing And while we are stepping we join our voices and sing [Chorus] Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Fal dee fal o ho ro air fa la la lay [Verse 3: Ciarán Bourke] And whether the blood be highland, lowland or no And whether the skin be white or black as a sloe Of kith and of kin where one be at right be at wrong As long as our hearts be true to the lilt of a song [Chorus] Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Air fal la la lo ho ro air fa la la lay Fal dee fal o ho ro air fa la la lay
