- Come all ye gentle Muses,
Before I bid adieu,
Another while in Ireland,
I'd like to spend with you,
It grieves my heart from you to part,
But here I cannot stay,

To rich America.Farewell a while to sweet Westland,
Where often I did rove,

To hear the Thrushes warble,
And the Blackbird on each tree,
Through each silent grove as I did rove
