Airly Beacon

By Charles Kingsley

1819-1875

AIRLY Beacon, Airly Beacon;
         O the pleasant sight to see
Shires and towns from Airly Beacon,
         While my love climb'd up to me!

Airly Beacon, Airly Beacon;
         O the happy hours we lay
Deep in fern on Airly Beacon,
         Courting through the summer's day!

Airly Beacon, Airly Beacon;
         O the weary haunt for me,
All alone on Airly Beacon,
         With his baby on my knee!
