SWEET KING WILLIAMS TOWN My bonnie barque floats light and free Across the surging foam It bear's me far from Innisfail To seek a foreign home A lonely exile traveller 'Neath misfortune's cruel frown Away from home and the friends so dear In sweet King Williams Town While here upon the deck I stand And watch the surging foam Kind thoughts arise all in my mind For friends I'll ne'er see more For childhood days and all happy hours As fast the tears roll down For my old home and the friends so dear In sweet King Williams Town Shall I no more gaze on that shore Or view those mountains high Or gaze along Black Water's banks Where I roamed as a boy For to view the sun over Knockacummer Light up the heather brown Before she flings Her little farewell beams Over sweet King Williams Town @emigrate @Irish filename[ KINGWILL MR oct97 |
