rustling of the trees,
And see St Patricks glorious banners, swaying proudly in the breeze,
Remind and call the dear little shamrock.Frank Bouchier-HayesIt was with a precious cargo from Bergenn we set sail.
Kind fortune did favour us with a sweet and pleasant gale,
For nights and days we ploughed the seas
No danger did we fear, until the Glengivney mountains before us did appear
Our ship was heavily laden with tobacco and strong rum
And our captain prayed to God to steer our ship
Safe o'er the foam on to Inishowen Head.Mark Jenkins
