The songstress of Claremorris Delia Murphy was her name
Her distinctive singing voice lives on in c d to her enduring fame
Her songs are often replayed though deceased for some time
She knew of Worldwide fame when in her glorious prime,
She was one of my favorite singers when i was a young boy
And listening to her records is something i still enjoy
The pride of Mayo Delia for her many an encore
She became loved and famous far from Hibernia's shore
From the nineteen thirties to the nineteen sixties an entertainer beyond compare
The Delia Murphy's of this World to say the least are rare
She had the gift of making others happy and that's a marvelous thing
It can be said of Delia that she was born to sing
Though long with the departed her marvelous singing voice with us remain
And the likes of Delia Murphy we may not see again.
