Tonight I'm in a far off country
but memory brings my eyes to fill
when my thoughts travel back to Kilbunny graveyard
and to the waterfall of Mayfield Mill
Through Curraghmore woods i used to ramble
and climb upon the steeple hill
and view the lovely scenes down under
and the waterfall at Mayfield Mill
I well remember all those good neighbours
and all the happy days i saw
when we were young and the factory working
and the leather money in sweet Portlaw
The high green banks of the river Suir
and other lovely things i saw
was Coolfin Lakes with it's deep false waters
and the Copper Lodge in sweet Portlaw
I'm getting old and my journey is ending
still i hope my wish to fill,
The ivy walk was my favourite ramble
by the waterfall by Mayfield Mill.
