Tuning: CGCGCE

lyrics

Out fishing on the River Boyne
Words surface and a rhythm joins
In the stream of poem

Come laddy-o and train your mind
'Til bravery and love do rhyme
Will you cast your line?

These purling waters
Run richer than ever before
Your sons and daughters
Are sending some silver ashore

Flame flicker at the fireside
Long shadow where the answers hide
I in you confide

If all knowing is the goal of men
This osier knows a sage's friend
Will you taste it then?

These purling waters
Run richer than ever before
Your sons and daughters
Are sending some silver ashore

Fair hair upon a redwood frame
Hard-heeled against the call of fame
Will you say your name?

Out gazing at the starry skies
Pale whip-poor-will is on the rise
How sweet she flies

These purling waters
Run richer than ever before
Your sons and daughters
Are sending some silver ashore

The rook is cawing
The music of what is in store
Her sons and daughters
Say living is its own reward
