“I will sing to night of a fairy land”
(continued from previous page)In that dear old land and the sweet old land where the beautiful river flow.
IV
I'll sing Irelands ancient days
when our sires were kinglymen
He led the race the manly race
threw forests field & glen
His only word was his shinning sword
and his pen was patriots blow
In that dear old land & the sweet
old land where the beautiful
river flow.
