I can still hear mother's voice and see her walking through the park as she sang to me. I was extremely lucky to be born her daughter.

Strawberries on the vine about to ripen. Rhodies going and roses to come. Plague or not, it will be a good summer.

Lyrics:

The pale moon was rising
Above the green mountain;
The sun was declining
Beneath the blue sea
When i strayed with my love
To the pure crystal fountain
That stands in the beautiful
Vale of Tralee.

She was lovely and fair
As the rose of the summer
Yet ‘twas not her beauty
Alone the won me
Oh, no! ‘twas the truth
In her eye ever dawning
That made me love Mary,
The rose of Tralee.

The cool shades of evening
Their mantle was spreading,
And Mary, all smiling,
Was listening to me,
The moon through the valley,
Her pale rays was shedding
When I won the heart
Of the rose of Tralee.

Though lovely and fair
As the rose of the summer
Yet ‘twas not her beauty
Alone that won me
Oh, no! ‘twas the truth
In her eye ever dawning
That made me love Mary,
The rose of Tralee
