Across The Broad Waters
Ah, Never May That Faithful Heart
Ah, Never Was Seen
Another Cheer (Introduction)
Blessings On That Reverend Land
By Sorrow Tried Severely
The Colleen Bawn
The Eye Of Love Is Keen
Far O’er The Lake
From Inchigela
I Give The Best Advice
In My Wild Mountain Valley
Let The Farmer Praise His Grounds
Let The Mystic Orange Flowers
A Lowly Peasant Girl

Mother, What Means Those Looks So Wild?
No, No, This Morning Hardress Leaves
Stop, To Put An End To Everything
Tally-Ho! (Hunting Chorus)
Trust Me
Villain, You Dare!
The Wedding Day Has Come At Last
With This Treasure I Must Part
Your Slumbers
