Ballad for Star
Kieran Donaghy has retired from Kerry Football. I found this ballad online. Aplologies to the poet whose name wasn't with the poem online.
He hailed from the kingdom of Kerry,
A Rocky who played for the Stacks,.
He lined out up front for his county,
And tormented the very best backs.
A Rocky who played for the Stacks,.
He lined out up front for his county,
And tormented the very best backs.
They pulled, they dragged and they tripped him,
But the ball it was already there,
For the star had very good vision,
To get the ball to the man with red hair.
But the ball it was already there,
For the star had very good vision,
To get the ball to the man with red hair.
Manys the day he did save us,
And pulled the win out of the fire,
But time has come for the big man,
To hang up his boots and retire,.
And pulled the win out of the fire,
But time has come for the big man,
To hang up his boots and retire,.
He speaks of O'Connors and Fitzgeralds,
And all of the Donaghy clan,
Well proud they are of this young boy,
Who grew into one talented man.
And all of the Donaghy clan,
Well proud they are of this young boy,
Who grew into one talented man.
On behalf of the fans of the Kingdom,
Who came out with the green and the gold,
So sorry to bid you farewell,
But for years your stories be told.
Who came out with the green and the gold,
So sorry to bid you farewell,
But for years your stories be told.
Good luck in the chapter that awaits you,
You owe nothing to the jersey you wore,
But we all wish once more we could see it,
That pass to young Clifford's score.
You owe nothing to the jersey you wore,
But we all wish once more we could see it,
That pass to young Clifford's score.
What do you think of that Joe Brolly?
