    When letters come from home to me, tis sadly I lament.
    That cruel fate that tempted me, when far from home i went.
    I cheered myself in spite of all, but still I cant ignore.
    The fact of faith that savoured me.
    Was my own dear Cappamore.

    And never while my heart shall beat.
    Shall I forget you dear.
    Through absent from my native place.
    In my dreams you still are near.
    And ever until my race is run.
    And the span of life is over, shall I forget those grand old days
    That I spent around Cappamore.
