I'll sing for you of this lovely place, and 'tis there I like to be,
Where I can spend my leisure time in merriment and glee.
The maidens fair, I do declare, with them I like to go,
And have a stroll along the banks, where the Mulkear river flow. II
The hills of Lough and of Brackile, amongst them I'll remain,
And where I spent my youthful days round lovely Pallasgreen.
Fond memory do bring to me the days of long ago,
When I would range the valleys where the Mulkear river flow. III
I love the hill of Coolnapisha and the valley lying around,
Where in my youth with dog, and gun the game in plenty found.
'Tis through this rich and fertile plain each day I used to go,
And often lay in the grassy bank where the Mulkear river flow.(continues on next page)
