   “i went to a party consisting of four,”

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   I went to a party consisting of four,
   And as it was private we soon shut the door,
   A young girl from Eng another England another from Wales,
   And one that resided with Scotland fair dales,
   We sat down in friendship and drank of the wine,
   Each spoke of her country I told them of mine,
   The "Rose" "Leek" and Thistle in concord were seen,
   Said I, "Here's the toast of an Irish Colleen."

   Here's to old Ireland her sons and her daughters,
   Here's to her emblem - the Shamrock I mean,
   May the sun always shine on the round tower of Erin
   That's the toast from the heart of an Irish Colleen.

   The Welsh girl stood up in defence of the "Leek",
   I'll drink to my emblem each hour of the week,
   The lassie from Scotland with pride in her eyes, Said, here's to the Thistle no Scotman denies,
   The English - girl gave us a toast to the "rose",
   And said without our aid aid she could thrash all her foes,
   Said I, "I'm not willing to cause any pain,"
   I'd like you to join in my toast once again.
