luS,
often feel sad, must own,
When you're all away on lifes mission,
And l am here, almost alone;
| sit by this fireside and ponder,
When the day and it's labors are DER,
And think Of that home in Old Ireland,
Which l never shall see any more.
l think of the days ere left there
To come to this strange foreign land,
And an image arises before me,
or our own native tide-beaten strand:
Again | can see after nightfall,
by the sllvery light of the moon,
Tower up in the gloom of the distance
The castle of Noch-na-g ar-oon.
can see if stroling around there,
The pathway which led by its side,
On its walls have often sat watching
The ebb and flow of the tide;
Not far to the north is Dunlichee,
Which, according to stories of old,
Had somewhere not far from its case
ment,
Most wonderful treasures of gold.
l have wandered around the old castle,
Whose origin no one can tell,
And 1t seems in it's lone situation
Like place where deep mysteries
dwell;
Its walls are corroded and broken,
Its corridors shrouded in gloom,
1t appears when around there at twl-
light,
Like lonely, unfrequented tomb.
There often at eve I sat watching,
Ger the waves, the old cormorant sail,
The raven, the putin and sea gull
Around it their sorrows bewail
The sea breezes sigh through the grasses
That grow round it's Wondering pile,
AS if signing and sadly lamenting
The fate of the Emerald Isle,
l remember the mill and the cottage
That stood by the side of the stream,
But the morning left them forever
Seems now like Il fast-fading dream.
l remember the bob. and beside it
The lawn. where at hurley we played,
The beach, and steep cliffs Of Colleen,
Along which I often have strayed,
remember place called Killraten,
The Sundays we spent by the sea,
And the day that myself and Tim Nancy
Got into a fight in kilkee
l remember with something like sorrow
The days that spent around there.
And the times that we all went together
To Carrigaholt to the rair.
l remember Kilrush by the Shannon,
The same as Of old it appears,
But now could behold, IL once back
The changes Of forty long years.
Thus fancy quite often deceives me,
And holds up those scenes to my view,
The pleasures and sports of my boyhood,
The friends and companions I knew.
But know that it all now is altered.
My friends and companions arc gone,
That home is replaced by another.
Besides which the Shannon rolls on:
And If ! could revisit that island,
That cottage which once l called
home,
There is none who would now recognize
me,
A stranger around there I'd roam.
