    Down By Mount Callan Side
    One evening as I roved out
    being troubled in my mind,#
    to view the groves and valleys fields and the meadows in their prime
    Approaching the "Hand" i met a lady
    who has my heart beguiled,
    and she milking off her father's cow,
    Down by down by Mount -Callan -side.

    I instantly saluted her ,and put her in a maze.
    I asked her would she feel for thirst,
    as the milk was in her pail.
    She says young man ,i pray be gone.
    I hope you wont me chide,
    for I'm milking off my father's cow .
    Down by down by Mount -Callan -side.
