  1. (continued from previous page)
    often kneel in prayer
    Your thoughts go back to bygone days
    and you think they're really there.
    To finish up my rambles, I mean to spend a while
    Down by Boundoran's lovely strand,
    the gem of Erin's isle
    Tourists come from lands afar, to
    the brightest spot of all,
    It's a credit to old Ireland and the County Donegal.
    Material got from Eva McCauly, Lisahully, who composed the piece. She is aged fifteen and a pupil of this school.
