Fit and healthy and sprightly and so much alive
She is one who has so many stories to tell
Of her good times in life and her hard times as well
In Toorbonia by the hills where she lived for years Julia was loved and known
But in Millstreet Town nowadays they claim her for their own
Still young in her ways though in human years old
Her amazing life story deserves to be told
Her son Donal in his seventies is not young one can say
Physically he is one who has known of a better day
And his amazing mother remains healthy and strong
To a very rare long lived breed she is one who belong
A kind and caring woman with the great gift of faith
For Julia Mary Murphy heaven has to wait
All of those she went to school with among the forever gone
But Julia Mary young at heart in life keeps on living on
There will not be one like her in Toorbonia again
At one hundred and five her great love of life she retain
Today a legendary figure in old Millstreet Town
And in Duhallow she has staked her claim to renown.
