  1. (continued from previous page)
    I beheld the wild rose by the strand
    IV
    O shall I ere forget them
    The happiest hours at eve,
    And now for Ballybunion
    My heart does sorely grieve,
    But now I am determined
    No matter who'll command
    To pluck that flower and cherish
    That wild rose by the strand.
    Composed by P.J. Sheehy ex N.T. of Lacca about forty years ago.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
