'Tis there you'd hear read more

Old Dublin City there is no doubtin'
Bates every city upon the say.
'Tis there you'd hear O'Connell spoutin'
And Lady Morgan making tay.
For 'tis the capital of the finest nation,
With charmin' pisintry upon a fruitful sod,
Fightin' like devils for conciliation,
And hatin' each other for the Love of God.

Th' an'am an Dhia, but there it is--
The dawn on the hills of Ireland.

From the fair sweet face of my sireland!

Like a bride in her rich adornin',
And with all the pent up love of my heart
I bid you the top of the morning.

For dear is the Emerald Isle of the ocean,
Whose daughters are fair as the foam of the wave,
Whose sons unaccustom'd to rebel commotion,
Tho' joyous, are sober--tho' peaceful, are brave.

To grow eloquent.

Or become a member
