Countless rivers and streams
Run through meadows of green
The world is still asleep
While the sun and the rain
Keep on playing their game
An endless hide and seek
From the hills in the north
Blows a wind to the shore
And sings our favourite song
When I look at the coast
I breathe in and I know
It's here where I belong
Do you know this island?
Our haven in the sea
A shamrock in the ocean
We call the land of green
(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey)
Chorus:
The land of green
(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey)
So proud and free
Where the skies are clear
And the fiddles still cheer
No place I'd rather be
Once you land on these shores
You won't leave anymore
My home, my land of green
We've been riding the storm
Since the day we were born
With glory in our hearts
Never going astray
Cause we'd find our way
With hope and faith and love
With a smile on our face
We would long for this place
We'd love to call our own
Where there's laughter and joy
Every acre of soil
Is a piece of home
Do you know this island?
Our haven in the sea
A shamrock in the ocean
We call the land of green
(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey)
[Chorus]
(Hey, hey, hey)
(Hey, hey, hey)
[Chorus]
