    Farewell my Country a Long farewell
    My tale of anguish no tongue can tell
    For I'm forced to fly o'er the ocean wide
    From the home I love by Lough Sheelin side.
    How proud was I of my girl so mfair
    I was envied most by the young men there
    When I brought her back a bashful bride
    To my cottage home by Lough Sheelin side.
    Farewell my love a fond adieu
    Farewell my comrades and my country too
    For I'm forced to fly o'er the ocean wide
    From the home I love by Lough Sheelin side.
    But all our joys were too good to last
    For the Landlord came our young hopes to blast
    In vain we pleaded for mercy no
    He hurled us out in the blinding snow.
    The no one opened for us their door
    For ill-felt vengeance would reach them sure
    My Eileen fainted in my arms and died
    On that snowy night by Lough Sheelin side.
    Farewell my love a fond adieu
    Farewell my comrades and my country too
    For I'm forced to fly o'er the ocean wide
    From the home I love by Lough Sheelin side.
    I buried her down in the churchyard low
    Where in the springtime the wild flowers grow
    I shed no tears for my tongue felt dry
    On that fearful night by Lough Sheelin side.
    Farewell my country farewell all day
    The ship will soon take me far away
    But oh my fond heart would sooner bide
    Near my Eileen's grave by Lough Sheelin side.
    Farewell my love a fond adieu
    Farewell my comrades and my country too
    For I'm forced to fly o'er the ocean wide
    From the home I love by Lough Sheelin side.

      The people were stupid. there were lots of fish in the sea that they could have stayed alive on but they would not build boats. The Irish were passive and sat around allowing everything to happen to them. It is the damn Catholic church that is mostly responsible because people used to listen to those b...itches.

      not necessarly. it is specifically about the tenant farmers who had no rights to their land or house and who were often evicted on a whim by the absentee landlord’s agents. the unfortunate tennants had their homes burned down and were thrown out on the road . no friend or neighbour could take them in otherwise the same fate would befall them. The Landlords and their agents were supported in their dastardly deeds by the Royal Irish Constabulary (police). Ireland was ruled by England at the time and the irish peasants were treated as a conquered people to be exploited. The only option open to alot of these evicted was the “coffin ship” to America . If they did manage to survive that hellish journey (and 1 in 5 didn’t), they arrived in a country where they were the lowest of the low and some unable to speak English as Irish was their native language. I think it is amazing that quite a few survived and thrived and their descendants live happily Today in “The New World”

    So sad 😢
    From what I have learned, (correct me if I am wrong) The government forced landlords to pay their poor tenant's taxes; Because it was more than they themselves could afford, the landlords had to throw them out. This is a good lesson to keep in mind when governments get too much control.

      It was liberal politics, the same as the neo liberalism that we are going through now in Britain. My great grand-parents came to Liverpool in 1848, and on to Newcastle. Impossible to trace where from in Ireland. How I wish I could. Lovely video.

    This song is a page from the darkest time of all in Ireland's history. The hunger was an act of God. One can certainly not blame the potato! But the evictions that followed and the death that swept the land was a choice of landlords. They could have had the compassion of Christ but instead hardened their hearts to the suffering and added to it with the acid of greed.
