and a   ki-ss for those that love me

From south I come with velvet breeze, 
my word all nature blesses,
I melt the snow and strew the leaves 
with flowers and warm caresses;
I'll help you to dispel your woes, 
with joy I'll take your greeting
And bear it to your loved Mayo 
upon my wings so fleeting.

Ny Connaught, famed for wine and play, 
so leal, so gay, so loving
Here's my fond kiss I send today 
borne on the wind in its roving.
Those Munster folk are good and kind, 
right royally they treat me
But this land I'd gladly leave behind, 
with your Connaught pipes to greet me.
