Hi everybody

I am looking for a couple of lyrics by the wolfe tones.
The first one is Dingle Bay. From what I gather, while searching for them, there is a traditional version, and a version written by Brian.
Well, after a long time searching, i gave up, and tried to write them myself. I actually did better than i expected, and i am only missing one line from the chorus, then i will have them all. This is what i have:
Contentment of mind, is not found in a city
So me mind is inclined for, to ramble and dream
To a place where my heart has found greater fortune
In a brief winter skirmish me mind will see summer once more

(Chorus)
And there�s where the small birds sing high on the mountain
?
There�s where the wild eagle, knows its own freedom
And fisherman�s boats make their way by dingle bay

The sound of the bees there, collecting their honey
The sight of the sea birds, protecting their young
The scent of the wild flowers, the spray of the ocean
Its nature�s own beauty, we�re watching the world go around

(Chorus)

The fisherman�s boats there, they plough this old ocean
For mackerel and herring, all the fish of the sea
And though I have travelled the wild world all over,
There�s nowhere on earth that is dearer to me

(Chorus)


Now, the next one i need is monsignor horan. I tried the same with this one, but gave up, as i think the chorus is in irish.

I would be very grateful if anyone could help me, as its doin my head in.
