Adown the leafy lane we two
Heard fairy pipes play fairy music sweet, And now and then the tramp of fairy feet, And screams of laughter 'mong the fairy crew — The elves and fays that haunt old Corradhu.
Adown the leafy lane no more
We two go loitering in the Autumn eves, When merry reapers tie the golden sheaves,
And kine come lowing to the cottage door,
Where ready pails await the milky store.
Astoireen, no, far, far away,
Secluded lies that golden-memoried lane, Where ceaseless flows the bright and sparkling Main Through scenes of beauty to the storied Neagh — Here by the Hudson's banks we two grow gray. |
