William Percy French Never Poems
- 1. The Mountains Of Mourne
Oh Mary this London's a wonderful sight
With people here workin' by day and by night
They don't sow potatoes, nor barley, nor wheat
But there's gangs of them diggin' for gold in the street
... - 2. A Fairy Song
Stay, silver ray,
Till the airy way we wing
To the shade of the glade
Where the fairies dance and sing:
... - 3. To The West
The Midland Great Western is doing its best,
And the circular ticket is safe in my vest;
But I know that my holiday never begins
Till I'm in Connemara among the Twelve Pins.
... - 4. Are Ye Right, There, Michael?
You may talk of Columbus's sailing
Across the Atlantical Sea
But he never tried to go railing
From Ennis as far as Kilkee
...
