   The R.I.C. were searching
   For Sir Roger high and low
   They found him in McKenzie's fort
   Saying here you are a foe
   My name is Sir Roger Casement
   I came to free my native land
   But I could never free my country
   From lonely Banna strand.

   Where the Beautiful Rivers Flow.

   I sing tonight of a fairy land
   In the lap of ocean set
   And of all the lands I've travelled o'er
   'Tis the loveliest I've met
   Where the willows weep and the roses sleep
   And balmy breezes blow
   In the dear old land, that sweet old land
   Where the beautiful rivers flow.

   But oh! alas how can I sing ?
   'Tis an exile breathes the strain
   And that dear old land of my youthful love
   I must never see again
   And the very joy that fills my heart
   Must ever change to woe
   For that dear old land, that sweet old land
