My Innisfree – Hogwarts

I will arise and go now, and go to Hogwarts,

And a DA group I will have there, of loyal and brave students:

A dormitory I will have there, a room for the owls alone;

And live in the safety of the castle’s magic.

 

And I shall have some support there, for support comes dropping slow,

There midnight’s hoot of owls, and noon a glistening sun,

And evening full of heavy, warm air.

 

I will arise and go now, for always night and day,

I hear lake water rippling as the Giant Squid stretches;

While I stand in my bedroom in the lane of Privet Drive,

I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

My Innisfree – Knocknacree

I will arise and go now and go to Knocknacree,

And a cottage will I build there, of brick and thatch made:

Potatoes will I have there, a coop for the hen,

And live peacefully in the song loud wood.

 

And I shall have some tranquility there, for calmness comes dropping slow,

There midnight’s all a blur, and noon a crimson glow,

And evenings full of frogs croaking in the pond.

 

I will arise and go now, for always night and day

I hear the owls hooting;

While I stand here on the path, or in the wood of day,

I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

My Innisfree – Italy

I will arise and go now, and go to Italy,

And a mega-mansion build there, of the finest yellow gold;

Fun I will have there, a pool for the colorful parties;

And live there with my friends in the place I truly adore

 

And I shall have room there, for family comes dropping slow,

There midnights crazy parties, and noon a colorful glow,

And evenings full of crazy fun

 

I will arise and go now, for always night and day

I hear the loud laughter, ringing in my ear;

While I stand on the freezing cold floor, or in the school classrooms,

I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

My Innisfree – Glenstal Abbey

I will arise and go now, and go to Glenstal Abbey,

And a grande room built there, of white brick made;

Many friends will I have there, an application form for the

Munk himself, and with all my companions in the becoming dreamy castle.

 

And I shall have some aura there, for evident comes dropping

Slow,

There midnights a burst of laughter and noon a glistening glow,

And evening full of gleeful peers.

 

I will arise and go now, for always night and day

I hear ecstatic roars;

While I stand on the school’s corridor, or in my English class,

I hear it deep in the heart’s core.

My Innisfree – Dubai

I will arise and go now, and go to Dubai,

And a golden mansion build there, of polished marble made,

A huge swimming pool I will have there, a small quiet beach for my friends and family,

And live happily in the scorching hot sun

 

And I shall have some fun there, for fun comes dropping slow

There midnights golden glitter, and noon a velvet sunny glow,

And evening full of the scarlet suns glitter.

 

I will arise and go now, for always night and day,

I hear music playing down at the beach,

While I sit in the loud canteen, or in the crowded science room,

I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

My Innisfree – Bora Bora

I will arise and go now and go to Bora Bora,

A small, warm cabin build there, of fine wood made,

And a viewing balcony will I have there,

And a table made of marble for my rocking chair,

and live freely in the bright warm sun.

 

And I shall have some adventure there for  mystery comes dropping slow,

Drooping from the veils of the of the morning, to where the waves break,

There midnights all a shiny glow and moon a breezy day

 

I will arise and go now, for always night and day

I hear the water lapping over the stony shore,

While I stand on the sea-shore or on the sandy beach,

I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

My Innisfree – California

I will arise and go now, and go to California,

And a palace build there, of stone and red brick made:

A pool will I have there, a stable for the horses,

And live with friends and family in the hills with views of the beach.

 

And I shall have some fun there, for fun comes dropping slow,

There midnights all a light from the city’s streets at night, and noon a pools glow,

And evening full of laughter.

 

I will arise and go now, for always night and day,

I hear ocean water waves :

While I stand on the school grounds, or in the room of history class,

I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

My Innisfree – Rural Villiage

I will arise and go now and go to a quiet aul village,

And a house build, there, of hurley made:

Trays of oranges that look like sliotars will I have there, a hurling field for the back garden,

And live with my hurling pals in the countryside.

 

And I shall have some bobbing tunes there,

For craic comes dropping slow,

There midnights madness, and noon a blue and yellow glow,

And evening full of craic.

 

I will arise and go now, for always night and day,

I hear teachers talking;

While I stand on the corridors,

Or in the cantine doing homework,

I hear it in the deep heart’s core.
