* '''"My Dark Rosaleen}:''' a poem by Irish poet James Clarence Mangan. (1803–1849). It is a patriotic poem disguised as a love song, in a time when nationalistic expression was outlawed in Ireland. Thus the name is a poetic symbol of Ireland. O MY Dark Rosaleen, Do not '''sigh''', do not '''weep'''! The priests are on the ocean green, They march along the deep. There 's wine from the royal Pope, 5 Upon the ocean green; And Spanish ale shall give you hope, My Dark Rosaleen!
