Matt Hyland - as sung by Johnny McEvoy

There was a lord who lived in a town
Who had a lovely handsome daughter
She was courted by a fair young man
Who was a servant to her father
But when her parents came to know
They vowed they'd send him from the island
The maid she knew her heart would break
Were she to part from young Matt Hyland

So straight away to her love she goes
Into his room to awake him
Saying arise my love and go away
This very night you will be taken
I overheard my parents say
Inspite of love they will transport you
So arise my love and go away
I wish to God I'd gone before you

The lord discoursed with his lady fair
One night alone in their bed chamber
Saying we'll send for him and we'll bring him back
As no one can win her favour
They sent a message then in haste
And brought him back on to the island
They brought them to the church to wed
And made a lord of young Matt Hyland
