Teru Lyr Add: Let Erin Remember the Days of Old (Moore) (10) Lyr Add: LET ERIN REMEMBER THE DAYS OF OLD (Moore) 08 May 97


To AG:
I think Thomas Moore's lyrics are what you were looking for in your thread on 23 April.
Here, the lyrics:

LET ERIN REMEMBER THE DAYS OF OLD

Let Erin remember the days of old,
Ere her faithless sons betray'd her,
When Malachi wore the collar of gold,
Which he won from her proud invader;
When her kings, with standard of green unfurl'd,
Led the Red-Branch Knights to danger,
Ere the emerald gem of the western world
Was set in the crown of a stranger.

On Lough Neagh's bank, as the fisherman strays,
When the clear cold eve's declining,
He sees the round towers of other days
In the wave beneath him shining!
Thus shall Memory often in dreams sublime,
Catch a glimpse of the days that are over;
Thus sighing, look through the waves of Time
For the long-faded glories they cover!


I hope the lyrics can help you.
With regards
Teru
