O'Brien dear just listen here, I'll tell to you some news,
Although you're at the breakfast now, the treat you wont refuse,
It's nothing bad, dont stare like that, my good fellow eat away,
The West Clare Line is finished now, the train runs to Malbay.II
No more we'll face the cutting winds, in Patsey Gorman's car,
Or pass through bleak Mt Callan when the elements are at war,
But snugly sit and gaze abroad, in sunshine or in rain,
While we are swiftly borne along by the Miltown Malbay train.III
Old Robert Cummins shakes his head, and says "Tis very quare,
That all the fine old prophecy should melt away in air,
For old Shawn Rynne oft said to him, the smoke would ne'er be seen,
Arising from the engine, as it rolled down from Rineen."(continues on next page)- Collector
