The question is set to the rhythm of Thomas Campbell's (1777-1844) "The Exile of Erin":

There came to the beach a poor exile of Erin,
 The dew on his robes was heavy and chill;
For his country he sighed when at twilight repairing,
 To wander alone by the wind-beaten hill.
But the day-star attracted his eye's sad devotion,
For it rose on its own native isle of the ocean,
Where once in the flow of his youthful emotion,
 He sang the bold anthem of Erin go bragh

Joyce himself spent a large part of his life as an exile from Erin, living in Trieste.
