Dublin in a rare old times
Based on songs and stories, heroes of renown. Are the

hallowed halls and houses, the haunting children's rhymes.
That once was Dublin city in The Rare Old Times.

And watch the new glass cages, that spring up along the Quay.
My mind's too full of memories, too old to hear new chimes,
I'm part of what was Dublin, in The Rare Old Times.
