THE ANGEL OF SLIABH LUACHRA Today I walked in the shadow of an angel A bright shining star that shone so well As she smiled Her eyes filled with love Which will now glow forever, from above If you are lucky enough to catch her eye You will stop, and ask, why Oh ! why But God has called her to his side And by his law, we must abide Where once a kiss, a hug, a look, was shared A prayer is now whispered, by those who cared In all our hearts, She now will dwell Even with us, she did not know too well I never knew this Little Mite A gem I believe, so cute, so pretty, and sometimes quiet From whence She came, She can be so proud To hear the prayers in Sliabh Luachra recited aloud Her Mother's daughter, an angel of light She will be with You always, the Little Mite So neighbours and friends Remember, this is not where it ends So gather around, and let it be said Yes, I walked today with an angel instead.
