Irish song 15 years

Heard it at the service at Yankee Stadium a few days after 9/11. What is this song? It goes “when I was 15 years” or something like that. I’d like to get a copy of it, but I know nothing about it. I’m sure everyone else does and will make fun of me for asking something so obvious.

Google is not my friend on this one.

The song you heard was sung by Ronan Tynan of the The Irish Tenors.The name of the song is Isle of Hope,Isle of tears and is an old Irish song. It is on the album named “Ellis Island” by the Irish Tenors
(Well worth buying IMHO)

Old being relative about 30 years :slight_smile:

Knew I could count on someone. Thanks.
