   This is a lunch of bright green shamrock from that far off land of mine. They grew on Emerald hills with beauty all divine. They grew beside near Ballyheigue that holds my mothers grave. Oh mother an Irish grave hath thine with shamrocks deep in dew. O heaven be thine dear mother mine which my young heart never knew. Heres a health to the sign of Fitzmaurice race. Who at present besides oer this grant ancient place. When it seems to eacho [?] with musical glee The glories of Ireland and the lands of the free.
