  2. Tipperary

    Were you ever in sweet Tipperary,
    Where the fields are so sunny and green,
    And the heath-brown Slieve Bloon and the Galtees look down with so proud a mien
    Tis there you would see more beauty than

    for where could your match be found.

    that darkness is in your eye,

    With hearts as bold as the men of old
    to your self and your country true
