Song (continued)
“A man named Denis graham used to go”
(continued from previous page)V
May the far Eastern beauties be ever so fair
And the gems of the ocean be most precious and rare
I’d renounce them for ever and prove constant and true
Did I own that sweet treasure in a bonnet of blue.VI
Then where ever I may ramble, my fond thoughts shall be,
On the mountains and valleys around sweet Clonaslee.
And the green woods of Brittas where I last bid adieu
To the flower of Kilmanmon and her bonnet of blue.Theresa Kelly,
GlenKeen, Clonaslee Laoighis.
