In Ireland o’er the say.
“‘He be askin’ all manner of beastie and bird,
And faix! they be comin’, I give ye me word;
In Ireland, in Ireland,
In Ireland o’er the say,
The rabbit would come wid his new shillelagh,
The fox and the goat would be footin’ it gaily,
The squirrel be there wid his bush for a taily,
In Ireland o’er the say.
