It being in the pleasant month of May
The day being clear and long,
The fields were green, the valleys rang
With Lark and Linnet's song;
I was reconciled when nature Smiled, for to employ my quill
To sound the praise of heroes brave
"I mean the boys of Kill."II
Those boys are free and unity among them does abide
They are well bred and of one mind
They are devoid of pride
To stand their cause and gain applause
Their precious blood would spill
The Cavalry roved out to see,
The Shamrock Boys of Kill.III

With a green sash on each shoulder,
And a broad sword in each hand(continues on next page)- Collector
