Old Songs
“May the heavens bless you”
May the heavens bless you
Knockanure church.
That lonely spot where the dead do resort.
To sit on its walls on a fine summer's morning.
You could see the sweet town of Ennis the tide of Saleen and the dew rise and fall.
To search the whole world for the burying plantation.
Knockanure church is the pride of them all. - Collector
