  1. A Song

    It was a fine hunting day, and the wind it was low.

    It was a fine hunting day, and the wind it was low,
    At our usual time we commenced for to go,
    Kilnagleary was our meet as every one did know,
    To be there with our hounds in the morning,
    Chorus
    With our Hark, Tallyho, Tallyho, our Harkaway,
    In the marsh near the strand
    'Twas away, away she goes,
    II
    With our hounds far ahead to the view "Tallyho",
    With Captain and Melody and Gaylass, that lies low,
    With Gameboy and Duster and others you know,
    We were forced to the cry in the morning.
