The Land Of

The Land of great rivers and clear flowing streams
Her unrivalled beauty i see in my dreams
Her mountains and woodlands her fields evergreen
I wish i could write of the beauty i've seen
Of beautiful things like the lake by the hill
The birthplace of the ever babbling silver tongued rill
That flows to the river non-stop twenty four hours a day
To the distant ocean many miles away
The land of O Neill and the dauntless Red Hugh
And of Maeve of Connacht and Brian Boru
And Cuchullain and Ferdi going away back in time
The heroes of folklore and story and rhyme
The Romans named it Hibernia Land of Winter so historians say
The Country that is known as Ireland today.
