My Wild Irish Rose, The dearest flower that grows. The bloom from my wild Irish Rose. The color green - because it is the color of spring, Ireland, and the shamrock. Leprechaun - Irish fairy. A leprechaun is a fairy taking the appearance of a miniature old man.
Leprechauns are solitary creatures and spend their time making shoes and brogues.
If you hear the sound of his hammer when he is at work you know you have found him. If caught, he can be forced to reveal the whereabouts of his treasure, but the captor must keep their eyes on him every second. If the captor's eyes leave the leprechaun, just for a moment, he will vanish. The Blarney Stone is a stone set in the wall of the Blarney Castle tower in the Irish village of Blarney. The origins of the Blarney Stone's magical properties aren't clear, but one legend says that an old woman cast a spell on the stone to reward a king who had saved her from drowning.
