lirik lagu frank harte - sweet erin the green

[verse 1]
farewell lovely erin i am now going to leave you
may peace be on your daisy clad hills
in wild foreign lands i am bound for to praise you
and i’ll sing of your sweet winding rills

[verse 2]
my parents for me welfare they did their endeavour
as parents they would do for any son
they bound me in me early days, to be an engraver
but alas by that art i’m undone

[verse 3]
i set the plates for forging notes and that i’ll ne’er deny
drawn on the nank of scotland and that company i defied
they traced me to belfast, all through a hirеd spy
which parted me from my sweet erin the green

[verse 4]
whеn my enemy assailed me, no dagger i drew
he was of a savage temper, but with a smile i did subdue
the n0ble bonds of charity i held all in my view
from my childhood in sweet erin the green

[verse 5]
well, it was not for murder that i received my sentence
i ardently loved all mankind
from the naked i clothed i made the acquaintance
of friendships sincere and sublime
[verse 6]
and now in this harbour of commerece and pleasure
william hill he now bids you farewell
you’re the fairest in the north for talant and treasure
and may peace and good will with you dwell

[verse 7]
and though the cruel oceans, between us now do roll
my heart will be as constant as the needle to the pole
a poor convict i’ll remain, my sad spirits to condole
far away from you, my sweet erin the green
