- (continued from previous page)It blew the roofes off cottages and swept them far awayA jonting car took wings at Cork and flew to Bantry BayThe Jarvee who was driving it, as soon as he came down cried 'Tare - in - Ouns' - But that's the way to go from town to town.
It blew the stacks of hay and oats across the river LeeBut high above the storm rang out, no far flung melodyThe golden throated Shandon, Bell rung by some magic HandThe music of them bells that night was heard throughout the land
Sure there never was a night like it T'was little Christmas NightFrom every Cabin window gleamed the Blessed Candle lightAnd that is why no lives were lost at least that's what they saySigns on the Irish always Light A Candle on that day
