My Land (Author: Thomas Osborne Davis)
p.365
- She is a rich and rare land;
Oh! she's a fresh and fair land;
She is a dear and rare land
This native land of mine.
- No men than her's are braver
Her women's hearts ne'er waver;
I'd freely die to save her,
And think my lot divine.
- She's not a dull or cold land;
No! She's a warm and bold land;
Oh! she's a true and old land
This native land of mine.
- Could beauty ever guard her,
And virtue still reward her,
No foe would cross her border
No friend within it pine!
- Oh! she's a fresh and fair land;
Oh! she's a true and rare land;
Yes! She's a rare and fair land
This native land of mine.
