The Romans Name For It Was Hibernia

The Romans name for it was Hibernia the Country now known as Ireland
Which translated means 'The Place Of Winter' which is not hard to understand
As the Romans went to there in Winter when frost and snow was on the ground
The Romans did not stay long in Ireland in history evidence of this to be found
Yet Hibernia for Ireland in Winter seems an apt name as the weather there at that time of year can be wet and cold
But this story comes from early oral history and many inaccuracies in a story so old
And though Ireland does have a proud written history and it's people have brought it honor and fame
Still maybe they should have stuck with Hibernia since Hibernia is such a nice name
And very different to neighboring Countries of England and Scotland in meaning different in every way
The Country the Romans baptized with the name of Hibernia is known as the Ireland of today
So many Countries have undergone name changes and Ireland it is one of those
And time to every Country brings changes such is life one would have to suppose
The Romans first named it as Hibernia but Ireland nowadays is it's name
It's people do have a proud history and they have brought it honor and fame.
