    VII. It’s hard to leave my childhood home. The cradle of my birth to cross the deep blue ocean a wanderer on the earth.
    VIII. and if I am spared, I will return in the years that are to come to well beloved Rossnowlagh and my dear Rossnowlagh home. This is a song composed by Mrs. Grey.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
