You may gaze from green mountains across the bright seas, 

Where wonder and pleasement are taking their ease. 

You may search the world over from there to Japan, 

Transported with nature and the glory of man. 

But why should men toil foreign lands to explore, 

When wonder and pleasement are here at the door, 

And who would go roving through country and town, 

From sweet Portaferry and the Kingdom of Down.
