Ireland Now A Prosperous Nation

In the Ireland I grew up in many lived in poverty But Nowadays in the old Country there is great prosperity There is peace in Northern Ireland such good news is good to hear And the future looks bright for Ireland that is how it would appear In enterprise and technology Ireland nowadays leads the way 'Tis a different Ireland I knew from the Ireland of today Once it's main export was people and people to there now migrate The twenty first century Ireland has become a prosperous State Many Irish people prospering once of such few dared to dream Change in Ireland for the better going by reports from there 'twould seem Once one of Europe's poorest but not one of the poorest anymore The economy is booming on Hibernia's green old shore People migrating to Ireland from poor Countries far away Ireland now a prosperous Nation thought I'd never see that day.
