[From Manx Melodies, 1922]

To the Lady Raglan
A Fairy Greeting

" Themselves" upon the mountains,
" Themselves" that haunt the plant,
That sparkle through the fountains
And laugh among the rain;
Greeting, greeting
Singing in the rain,
Laughing in the mountains
Greet you once again.

Your Druid Lana's akin to them
With them you have a part
That send a song to win to them
A kindly Irish heart
Singing, singing
Singing through the rain
And feeling you akin to them
Would greet you once again.
