SLIGO. They talk to me of lands with balmy breezes, Of countries where the skies are ever blue, And though I listen, sure I couldn't heed them— Sligo, my heart is ever back with you. 'Tis there the west wind sighs across the mountains, Those purple heather mountains near the sky; And in the gorse away down by the boreen There you can hear the plaintive curlew cry. For when the breezes steal across your hilltops, And down beneath the mist it gathers low, Across Ardhone steal chimes from the Cathedral, The blessed Angelus so sweet and slow. Oh, how I love the sun upon Cairns' hillside, The Abbey where good monks did once abide, Where some of those that loved me now are sleeping So peacefully, so calmly, side by side. Acushla, you're the home of those that love me, The home of those I hold so dear and true; And sure the very heart that beats within me, Sligo, it thrills at very thought of you! Ah, chide me not because I love you, Sligo! Though miles divide us, still my heart's with thee, My love for you is deeper than the ocean— And sure I think 'twill last eternally. —M. J. K.
