   One sod of turf that with deep devotion, I brought from here as a souveneir,
   'Twas little I thought when beyond the ocean, One day 'twould cause me to shed a tear.
   But sure this tear it may ne'er stop flowing, Across the dear old Bogra Hills.
   Thinking of Ireland's valleys and dells, Oh! would it keep my mind from glowing.

   Oh! Hills your bleak majestic splendour, You are by far much more dear to me,
   My memory awakens with thoughts so tender, Than all the beauty that here I see.
   Your city sights may be grand and glowing, But oh! with sadness my heart it fills,
   I ever long for the breezes blowing, Across the dear old "Bogra Hills".

   This song was composed by Mr Peter Golden who lived about half-a-mile south of Rylane. He composed the song in America. When he was sailing he took a sod of turf which he got in the "Bogra Hills". The "Bogra Hills" are Tooreen, Flagmount, and Knocknagow
