Once upon a dream,
The old castles of Ireland will call me home.
Upon the fields and mountains I will roam.
Wild and free,
I will be.
Once upon a dream,
I will walk among the buildings that gleam.
I will dip my feet in a cold stream.
My body, and the land of my heart,
Will never more be apart.
Once upon a dream.
Once upon a day,
I will walk among the people of Bray.
I will listen and learn the language that they say,
Once upon a day.
When the sky is hidden behind a mask of gray,
When the sun has yet to shine its bright ray,
I will walk among the people of Bray.
Once upon another life,
I will walk in the land and feel my ancestors strife.
A feeling of home will wash over me,
I shall feel their emotions, their longing to be free.
I shall walk among the homes of people whose blood was shed,
I shall walk in the fields that long ago were stained red.
I will hold the earth in the palm of my hand,
And breath a prayer of thanks to the men and woman who died for my land.
A beer for those whose hearts were tied to the sand,
A beer for those who fought and died for Ireland.

Authors Note - I know this is my second poem on Ireland, but I like writing about things I feel passionate about. Which is horses and Ireland xD If you have the same interests, feel free to pm me =P <3
P.S. - I am not sure about the tittle, if you have suggestions I'd love to hear them!
