Francis Duggan - A Beautiful Place Old Killarney

Francis Duggan - A Beautiful Place Old Killarney

'Tis surely an Earthly Utopia Killarney by the Pacific sea br In the sunlit park by saltwater the magpie lark calls out pee wee br Between Warrnambool and Port Fairy where Nature's beauty and peace reside br Where the oystercatchers can be heard piping above the din of the incoming tide br Each time I have been in Killarney I have felt sad from there on going away br Such a beautiful place for to live in and visit the sea every day br The clear coastal air unpolluted no factory anywhere near br On the coastal trees by saltwater the magpie's flute pleasant to hear br Long before the first Europeans came here in the shade of the coastal trees br The people of Australia's Dreamtime sung and danced their corroborees br Their spirits live on in Killarney though they have gone the ways of time br From Killarney the gem of Victoria that inspires song, story and rhyme br A beautiful place old Killarney such beautiful places are rare br I have been to some scenic places but with any it can compare.
