“You dark rolling billows that part me from Erin...”
(continued from previous page)1237.
When I left you dear Sligo the ocean was silent
The young lambs were skipping along the green shore.
I took the last prospect of my dear native Ireland,
Lofty Benbulbin and the plains of Bowmore.8.
I then looked with sorrow on the moon that was sleeping
On the bright river's bosom off Curwillick mill,
And I wept on the deck as the billows were sweeping
Musing on nature and my native Lough Gill.Composed by Roger Burns
in Montreal. (1840)
