*Classic song, classic voice*Near Banbridge town, in the County DownOne morning in JulyDown a boreen green came a sweet colleenAnd she smiled as she passed me by.She looked so sweet from her two white feetTo the sheen of her nut-brown hairSuch a coaxing elf, I'd to shake myselfTo make sure I was standing there.From Bantry Bay up to Derry QuayAnd from Galway to Dublin townNo maid I've seen like the sweet colleenThat I met in the County Down.As she onward sped I shook my headAnd I gazed with a feeling rareAnd I said, says I, to a passerby"Who's the maid with the nut-brown hair?"He smiled at me, and with pride says he,"That's the gem of Ireland's crown.She's young Rosie McCann from the banks of the BannShe's the star of the County Down."From Bantry Bay up to Derry QuayAnd from Galway to Dublin townNo maid I've seen like the sweet colleenThat I met in the County Down.I've travelled a bit, but never was hitSince my roving career beganBut fair and square I surrendered thereTo the charms of young Rose McCann.I'd a heart to let and no tenant yetDid I meet with in shawl or gownBut in she went and I asked no rentFrom the star of the County Down.From Bantry Bay up to Derry QuayAnd from Galway to Dublin townNo maid I've seen like the sweet colleenThat I met in the County Down.At the crossroads fair I'll be surely thereAnd I'll dress in my Sunday clothesAnd I'll try sheep's eyes, and deludhering liesOn the heart of the nut-brown rose.No pipe I'll smoke, no horse I'll yokeThough with rust my plow turns brownTill a smiling bride by my own firesideSits the star of the County Down.

Answer to Mee Ma, your reference to several hundred years makes it impossible to answer your question as space and time won,t permit. When the most recent and protracted chapterin this on again off again hostility was the gross and blatent disregard for the Catholic minority in the six countys of the British colony, this included housing and job discrimination ECT. Embolden buy the success of the black Americans the Catholic (republican) leadership attemted to draw attention to their plight and were met by unrelenting and violent suppression. From there it regressed into anurban guirilla conflict that was ended with the signing of the Good Friday peace accords. With the addressing of the original greiviances rather satisfactorily maney question the need for A united Ireland, hope I helped you. curraheered
