    “I was bent one time to travel, Some beauty spots to see”

    Composed by Mr. Patrick Gillick of Beagh, Killenkere over 190 years ago in honour of a local cheery man of the time. While in this world of evils and cares.
    We live from year to year.
    We often need some humorous friend.
    Our spirits up to cheer.
