"Music To Our Ears" lyrics

"Music To Our Ears"

Music to our ears

There is an aura that surrounds you
With decency you are blessed
There is a warmth in your presence
For every welcome guest

You are a voice for the voiceless
Like thunder in the plain
An empathetic ear for the afflicted
Selfless, humble, never vain

You are the aislinᵹ of our Celtic lore
Feasting on the branðán of our day
Sharing your sage and wisdom
With all along the way

Your quiet measured oratory
Speaks volumes to keenest ears
Your deliberate delivery
Honed throughout the years

You are like a warm hug
To the masses of our race
Gentle kind reassurance
With effervescent dignity and grace

You are the lyrics of the verse
The melody of the song
You are the North Star of the night sky
When our compass is pointing wrong

Your core values ever visible
An example for all to see
Truth, honesty, and decorum
And at the center, family

Immersed in tradition
Justice and fairness your deepest care
Culture and heritage born
From the spirits of county clare

Your service to our people
Will be etched in future lore
The epitome of Irishness
With Céad mile fáilᵹes ᵹalore

Statesmanlike and diplomatic
Charismatic without fears
You are a national treasure treasured
You've been music to our ears
