Subject: RE: Lyriscs/Tune? Exile's Lament
Bob, Here's the rest of the Lyrics...

A home and a country remains not for me.
Ah! never again in the green shady bower,
Where my forefathers lived, shall I spend the sweet hours,
Or cover my harp with the wild woven flowers
And strike the sweet numbers of Erin Go Bragh.

And sigh for the friends that can meet me no more.
And thou, cruel fate, wilt thou never replace me,
In a Mansion of Peace, where no Perils can Chase Me?
Ah! never again shall my brothers embrace me,
They die to defend me, or live to deplore.
