How soft is the moon on Glengariff, The rocks seem to melt with the light: Oh! would I were there with dear Fanny To tell her that love is as bright; And nobly the sun of July O'er the waters of Adragoole shines— Oh! would that I saw the green banner Blaze there over conquering lines. 2. Oh! love is more fair than the moonlight, And glory more grand than the sun: And there is no rest for a brave heart, Till its bride and its laurels are won; --- p.365 But next to the burst of our banner, And the smile of dear Fanny, I crave The moon on the rocks of Glengariff— The sun upon Adragoole's wave.
