a youth before me among strangers for to roam<br \/>\nTrying to make a living in a land across the sea<br \/>\nThree thousand miles from Ireland on the banks of the Lee<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll never forget the morning I left my dear old home<br \/>\nThe sun it was shining brightly, the mountains they looked red<br \/>\nI kissed my aged parents, their grief was plain to see<br \/>\nBut I left them far behind me on the banks of the Lee.<\/p>\n<p>I also left my own true love, her name was Miss Maguire<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s many&#8217;s the happy day I spent beside her father&#8217;s fire.<br \/>\nI promised her that I&#8217;ll return and married we would be<br \/>\nIn my dear old home in Ireland on the banks of the Lee.<\/p>\n<p>Through honest work and labour a rich man I have grown.<br \/>\nI mean to go back to Ireland, and never more to roam.<br \/>\nThe big ship, she is sailing and soon I will be<br \/>\nIn my dear old home in Ireland, on the banks of the Lee.<\/p>\n<p>Now that I&#8217;m home in Ireland, I nevermore will roam.<br \/>\nI met with my friends and neighbours the night that I came o&#8217;er.<br \/>\nI also met my own true love, and married we will be<br \/>\nIn my dear old home in Ireland on the banks of the Lee.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"templates\/template-full-width.php","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-410","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-amhrain","category-amhrain-i-mbearla"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/410","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=410"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/410\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3600,"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/410\/revisions\/3600"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=410"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=410"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.joeheaney.org\/ga\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=410"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
