1. An Old Song - Erin's Lovely Home

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   You patriot sons of Paddy’s land
   Come listen unto me,
   Till I relate and do narrate
   A mournful tragedy;
   For want of trade a thousand maids
   So far away do roam
   And leave the land where they were reared
   Called Erin’s lovely home.

   My father was a farmer
   Reared to industry,
   He had two sons they were men big
   And lovely daughters three;
   But the land was too small to maintain us all
   And some of us had to roam
   And leave the land where we were reared
   Called Erin’s lovely home.

   My father sold his second cow,
   He borrowed twenty pounds;
   Twas in the merry month of May
   We sailed from Derry town
   There were thousands more along the shore
   All anxious for to roam
   And leave the land where they were reared
