It Has Been Many Years

 It has been many years since i last walked up and down
The streets of Millstreet in Duhallow my first Hometown
Where to many i would be a stranger today
Since from there i have been many Seasons away
From the Town in view of  Clara the ancient hill
That time does not age or never will
Old memories live in me as a source of joy
Of Claraghatlea where i lived as a boy
And of the people i know there some of them sad to say
Of where the deceased are forever do lay
Perhaps i may not live out my life span
Where i grew from a boy into a man
But fond memories live with me of the Town of Millstreet
In the green countryside where the waterways meet.
