   The Hiberian Steamer

   My neighbours, I pray attention.
   I hope you'll attend to my song.
   And if you only listen,
   Indeed, I'll not keep you too long.
   Conserning the Hiberian Steamer.
   That crossed the Atlantic foam
   And struck her stern up in Bird Island
   And landed her crew in the shore.

   Chorus.
   Long life to the crew and the captain.
   That steered her across the rough main.
   Now we are eating fine flour cakes
   and apples, and stealing the
   wreck all away.

   If you happened to be there that morning
   It would fill up your heart with surprise.
   To behold these wild bullocks roaring
   The noise it would reach to the skies
