    That now are spent a passed away.
    111.
    I hope kind fate will reinstate
    That fortune's face will on me smile
    And safe conduct me home again
    To my own dear native Irish Isle
    When my comrades all and friends likewise
    Will throng around and thus will say
    We will sing and play as in days of old
    So you're welcome home from far away
