St-Patrick’s in Mtl – Memories Through the Eyes of my City

in just a city block of Montreal

marches a grand parade of green

the St-Patrick’s Day procession

a sight to be forever seen

the bagpipes blare and drums they pound

as floats go passing by

with Irish eyes and clovers abound

it’s a feast for the eye

the crowd all cheers with every step

as dancers jig and sway

and leprechauns with mischief kept

lead the merry way

a sea of green, a sea of joy

all come to celebrate

the luck of the Irish, a festive ploy

this grand St-Patrick’s fête

so let us don our emerald hue

and join this merry scene

for in this city block of Montreal

we’ll find our Irish dream.
