A Song (continued)
“A young Cavan maid, at the age of sixteen”
(continued from previous page)O my dear our meetings at length are all o'er,
If you love me as true as you once used to do,
You'll meet me to-night love on shore.III
The pale moon had risen,
From under the clouds,
And the waters in heaven,
Seemed to meet,
Saying God guide you safe,
And your fond parents too,
I will cross the wide ocean,
With you.Chorus.
Saying our ships sail to-night my darling,
Oh! my dear our meetings at length are all o'er,
If you love me as true as you once used to do,
You'll meet me to-night love on shore.- Collector
