Ripples in the water of the rockpool sun Ripples in the water of the rockpool sun Ripples in the water of the rockpool sun And the boats are in for Winter
Dónal-an-Chogaidh, will you marry me? Dónal-an-Chogaidh, will you marry me? Dónal-an-Chogaidh, will you marry me? Will I carry your three children?
CHORUS Ripples in the rockpools, ripples in the sea Ripples in the sand dunes rolling into Connemara Ripples in the rockpools, ripples in the sea Ripples in the sand dunes rolling into Connemara
Dónal-an-Chogaidh, will you sail with me? Dónal-an-Chogaidh, will you sail with me? Dónal-an-Chogaidh, will you sail with me? From here to far Coruña?
I can feel the tide falling in the rain I can feel the tide falling in the rain I can feel the tide falling in the rain But the wind is surely rising
CHORUS Ripples in the rockpools, ripples in the sea Ripples in the sand dunes rolling into Connemara Ripples in the rockpools, ripples in the sea Ripples in the sand dunes rolling into Connemara
I can feel the tide falling in the rain I can feel the tide falling in the rain I can feel the tide falling in the rain But the wind is surely rising
Dónal-an-Chogaidh, you will come to no good Dónal-an-Chogaidh, you will come to no good Dónal-an-Chogaidh, you will come to no good I shall leave you and take my dowry
CHORUS (3x) Ripples in the rockpools, ripples in the sea Ripples in the sand dunes rolling into Connemara Ripples in the rockpools, ripples in the sea Ripples in the sand dunes rolling into Connemara
