  1. Sit ye down, loyal comrads With me for a while,
    Till I spend my last hours round Erins green Isle,
    So fill up your glasses and drink hand to hand,
    For to morrow I'll be leaving my home at Lough Bran
    Chorus
    No more will I wander, round Farnaugh's green hill
    And the place I loved fondest was the bounds of the Mill
    And the green fertile valley where so oft times I ran,
    To inhale those fresh breezes round the Shores of Lough Bran
