- The leprechaun is known as The Little Red Man, and is about as tall as a child of six years old. He is always dressed in red and lives under the hawthorn trees.
He is always making little shoes and his little hammer makes a very gentle "tap - tap".
No one ever caught him. If people heard he was out they would not go near the place he was supposed to be even for the pot of gold he is supposed to have hidden. - Transcription guide »You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
