    (continued from previous page)
    is heard from tree to tree
    The lark sings soaring to the sky
    All the birds sing merrily
    But that feathered throng
    Has no tune or song
    Than the harp with all its pride
    I'd forever stray with that maid so gay
    Down by sweet Loughgur side.
