Forever In Your Heart

Oh, rolling hills of Ireland fair,
The beauty of green blankets me,
as far as the eye can see,

Oh, rolling hills of Ireland fair,
My true love calls to me,
His Irish spirit near,

Oh, rolling hills of Ireland fair,
filled with trees, of birdsongs,
the hawthorns a'growin everywhere,

Oh, rolling hills of Ireland fair,
bring me joy and laughter of tales,
sing to me your loversong,

Oh, rolling hills of Ireland fair,
Where my heart and soul belong,
Irelands daughter am I,

Oh, rolling hills of Ireland fair,
I am longing to come back home,
My true love, never more to roam.

Beautiful.  My Aunt had the delight of visiting Ireland (our home land) a few years ago. Indeed your pictures and poem bring back the memories of when she returned with such beautiful memories to share with us.  Lovely!

Ahh but I am spoiled by the Dubliners the Pogues and that little girl who won the   Eurovision song contest in 1970 Danna. You can always trust some-one from Ireland to paint a nice picture.

You have captured
the beauty well.

Those photos of
yours resemble
paintings.

Kindred souls are we!

Really beautiful write.  It makes me want to catch a plane.  I am part Irish and have always wanted to visit Ireland.  Thank you.
