  1. (continued from previous page)
    I love each blade of grass,
    Oe'r which I used to ramble,
    On a Sunday after Mass,
    Ah! me, in dreams I chase each sun,
    Beneath green Erin's sky.
    The first and best of all the rest,
    Is down by the Laragan Side.
    My friends I big good night to you,
    I ne'er shall see you more,
    But I'll ne'er forget the green fields,
    And the high hills of Laragan Mór.
