It's scenery you'd love to see
One a Summer evening fair.
When the golden sun sinks down to rest.
On Shannon's bosom fair.
It covers teem with various game
The pheasant hare and cock,
And rabbits quick are very thick
Round Carrig's stately rock.
V
It is for sport the famed resort
Of youths from far and near.
And on it's ivied ramparts
Every Sabbath you can hear
The violin's sound, while pressing round
The youths and maidens flock
To sport and play the live long day,
Round Carrig's stately rock.
VI
And now that I am leaving you
Sweet Carrig fare-thee-well.
Farewell to you oh sweet Tervoe
Your every vale and dell.
If the Muse to me for her treasury
Of verses would unlock
I'd give it's due to Sweet Tervoe
And Carrig's stately rock.
[Composed by Rev. Peter O'Shea.]
