A lovely poem Milum.
I recall (vaguely) a song called "Ireland, Mother Ireland" Some of the lyric includes in the verse Let's see :
"If you sigh, we hear you.
If you weep, we weep.
In your hours of gladness, how our pulses leap.
Ireland, Mother Ireland,
Come what may befall,
Ever shall we hold thee
Dearest, best of all."

Can't remember the rest.
Anyone help? [EDIT : Never mind, It came to me while I was brushing my tooth last night at bedtime!!!
