Awesome Elle by far the best version ive heard sang with passion Rebels Abu.
Superb rendition of the Cork Anthem. Elle Marie is an immensely talented vocalist and this is a brilliant performance. Well done!!
Lovely version of the song, I shall be using it at my late aunt's funeral in Scotland as she was originally from Cork city in Ireland :-)

Thanks for ALL the verses, brilliant, lovely voice :)
Lovely well sung
soooo beautiful!!!
What a beautiful voice. What a wonderful song. I'll be heading to County Cork in the near future, with this song in my head.
Great to hear all four verses.
I had to memorise this song for the 1916 annerversay at scoil bhride eglantine for the lord Mayor
One of the best "Banks"....had great times in Cork some years ago.
I love this song and you sing it so beautifully. I have been learning it to sing at our folk club tomorrow for St Patrick's night. My 3x great grandfather came from County Cork to England in the early 1800s. I don't think he ever got to return. I'll be singing it for him.
Brilliant
I enjoy her grace notes that are so typically Irish. A favorite of my Dad, Corkman by birth but Sligo-raised.
A beautiful Irish Ballad sung by a lovely singer
Ooh you little angel singing there
A beautiful rendition your grandmother Eily Lynam would be so proud also a talented singer ❤❤
Oh how oft do my thoughts in their fancy take flight
To the home of my childhood away,
To the days when each patriot's vision seem'd bright
Ere I dreamed that those joys should decay.
When my heart was as light as the wild winds that blow
Down the Mardyke through each elm tree,
Where I sported and play'd 'neath each green leafy shade
On the banks of my own lovely Lee.
Where I sported and play'd 'neath each green leafy shade
On the banks of my own lovely Lee.
And then in the springtime of laughter and song
Can I ever forget the sweet hours?
With the friends of my youth as we rambled along
Meet the green mossy banks and wild flowers.
Then too, when the evening sun's sinking to rest
Sheds its golden light over the sea
The maid with her lover the wild daisies pressed
On the banks of my own lovely Lee
The maid with her lover the wild daisies pressed
On the banks of my own lovely Lee
'Tis a beautiful land this dear isle of song
Its gems shed their light to the world
And her faithful sons bore thro' ages of wrong,
The standard St. Patrick unfurled.
Oh! would I were there with the friends I love best
And my fond bosom's partner with me
We'd roam thy banks over, and when weary we'd rest
By thy waters, my own lovely Lee,
We'd roam thy banks over, and when weary we'd rest
By thy waters, my own lovely Lee,
Oh what joys should be mine ere this life should decline
To seek shells on thy sea- girdled shore.
While the steel-feathered eagle, oft splashing the brine
Brings longing for freedom once more.
Oh all that on earth I wish for or crave
Is that my last crimson drop be for thee,
To moisten the grass of my forefathers' grave
On the banks of my own lovely Lee
To moisten the grass of my forefathers' grave
On the banks of my own lovely Lee.
UP the rebels

My sister and I have been researching our ancestry and found out that our 5 times great grandfather was from County Cork. I came upon this song while reading about County Cork. I love this. You have a lovely voice.
