Oh, glory for the Imrald Isle, St. Pathrick's Day! We'll do things up in proper style, Each Irishman will wear a tile, Each Irish maid will wear a smile, St. Pathrick's Day! We'll form into a fine parade, St. Pathrick's Day! Still, nonetheless, I am afraid At each saloon we'll be delayed, We'll drink all things but lemonade, St. Pathrick's Day! Oh, praise the land that gave us birth, St. Pathrick's Day! But don't forget, amid the mirth A people we of weight and worth, We'll show the world who rules the earth, St. Pathrick's Day! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE GREEN LITTLE SHAMROCK OF IRELAND by ANDREW CHERRY THE SHAMROCK by MAURICE FRANCIS EGAN ST.
