  1. A Song

    All of you who love the shamrock shore,

    A Song
    All of you who love the shamrock shore.
    Attend both young and old.
    For I feel it is my duty.
    Those lines for to unfold.
    Concerning those brave Irishmen
    From Ireland sailed away.
    In hopes to seek a livlihood .
    All in America
    On the fifteenth day of April.
    Our gallant ship set sail,
    with fifty five brave Irishmen
    All sons of "granua(i)le".
    They landed safe all in New York.
    On the nineteenth day of May
    To meet their friends and relations.
    All in America.
