Modern homes, electric lighting,
Overlooked by mountains brown,
Varied features, sports exciting.
In Moville-that charming town.

Lovely walks to stroll at leisure,
Lovely views of sea and sky,
Endless boating, bathing, pleasure;
Anchor Liners passing by.

Near Moville, Greencastle village,
Dreams of golf it brings to me,
Gardens, flowers, and fruitful tillage,
Rocky crags above the sea.

Each gains health-that priceless treasure,
Everyone seems free from care,
Never crowds to mar your pleasure,
Country life and purest life.

As we view the Castle turrets,
See Shrove's lovely sandy shore
Take a peep at Port-a-doris,
Look across at fair Bengore-
Enough!-My heart can't wish for more.
