Ireland Ancient Ireland

The Country I come from in size compared to most small
And it has a wet climate with lots of rainfall
But is is a green Country of splendid scenery
Ireland ancient Ireland on the Atlantic sea
The Irish a people of music, dance and song
To the great Celtic culture like the Scots they belong
A people once ravaged by famine and war
That's going back in time though not that very far
For Ireland I have shed my nostalgic tears
I have not been back there for some twenty one years
In Ireland I first looked on the light of day
But like many others in Ireland I did not choose to stay
And I live many miles south of my Homeland shore
And from Clara mountain above Claramore.
