Within yon milk-white hawthorn bush Among her nestlings sits the thrush; Her faithfull mate will share her toil Or with his song her cares beguile But I with my sweet nurslings here No mate to help, no mate to cheer, Pass widow'd nights, & joyless days While Willy's far [[underline]] from [[/underline]] Lagan Braes.
