Thread Name: Cursed are they who blackened the land
Subject: RE: Cursed are they who blackened the land
Probably the wrong song, but the song "Farewell My Green Valleys" by Glen Reid has the verse-
It hurts me to think of the things I left behind
And the famine has blackened our land
And to look for something that I may never find,
It's a problem that's now close at hand.
Sung by Susan McCann, Wolfe Tones, and others.
