- I have collected the following verses from my grandfather. This song was composed by the late Mr Jasper Tully of Boyle.Oh, Mary when your winning smiles
Like all those waters blue
Lough Key and all its wooded isles
Are vanished from my viewAnd when I leave my native home
I crave no other boon
Than once again Lough Key to roam
And climb the Rock of DoonAnd when I climb its dizzy heights
Proud Rockingham I see
And the Plains of Boyle so bright
That stretch beyond Lough KeyCome, piper, play up a merry air
The merriest one you know
And for a while you'll chase dull care
And let your spirits flow(continues on next page)- Collector
