   The Dance at Clooneen Cross

   Last Sunday evening at half-past seven,
   I took a stroll down by Cloneen Gate.
   And as I wandered I sadly pondered
   All o the country's sad lonely state,
   As I thus reflected the crowds collected
   To throw a stone or play pitch and toss
   And how the dancers tripped sets and lancers
   In bygone days here at Derrinlough Cross.

   I cursed damnation and emigration
   That drove those colleens across the sea
   And left my feelings so hard for dealings
   And turned my thoughts towards America
   In search of a foreigner at the Sandy Corner
   I plainly heard some melodeon tone
   And the scene I gazed on, it would amaze one
   And put new life into crippled bones.

   The crowds were dancing, it was most entrancing
