Air: The Harp.Composed by Den Kilmartin
Ballylanders, Co.Limerick.I
I dreamt I paced the Training Halls
In Dublin City Fair
And all seemed changed with those walls
So coldly changed and drear.
I sought in vain the noble few,
whom I before had known
But gloomy strangers filled their place
And I was quite alone.II
I wept in thought, the loved and true
That cheered me on of yore
Methought I asked if any knew
The few I prized the more.
But no one knew or cared to know,
They coldly answered nay,
I hung my head in silent woe
And wailed that hapless day.(continues on next page)- Informant
