Oh - I have another.

An Irish immigrant who was very important to the development of Texas, lived a long and productive life there - married into a Mexican family that he loved - and here are his dying sentiments:

The last rays of daylight still dancing on water
the summer heat rises from Copano Bay
I know as the sun slips below the horizon
I won't see it brighten another day

Come and sit by by side for these moments
My sweet Thomasa you've been good to me
I have donemuch in mylife, that's certain
but my saving grace has been your love for me

CHO:
Con este Beso (with this kiss)
Te digo adios (that says good bye)
Nunca llores por me mi amore (never cry for me my love)
Nunnca te lamentes por me mi amore (never mourn for me my love)
Por que mi alma (for my soul)
Vuela con Dios (flies with God)
En la luz (on the light)
de tu amor (of your love)
sobre las alas (on the wings)
de tu amor (of your love)

Born to the glens of the Barrow and the Liffey
Near Ballygarret on the Irish Sea
Blessed by the love of your South Texas family
My sweet Thomasa you've been good to me

CHO
