We All Have Our Journeys

We all have our journeys in life for to follow
And mine it did take me far south of Duhallow
To the home of marsupials and of Nature a wonder
The land known to some as Australia and to some as Down Under
A land that has inspired many a song and story
As the home of a very old race of people one of it's claims to glory
Far south of where i lived as a wild young fellow
Youth does have it's fling and time leaves us mellow
For years i have not seen the Boggeragh Ranges
And i know that to my first homeplace time would have brought changes
Twenty six years ago my ties with it i did sever
And many of the people i knew there at peace lay forever
We all have our journey in life for to follow
And mine it did take me far south of Duhallow.
