.                       Nil aon Tintean
                                Mar do
                         Thinteain fein!

                        Indeed, because
                      home is where the
                 Hearth Harp & Heart is.

                  Everybody wishes to be
                 there, even wild Salmon.
              It was the yearning of Yeats.

             Home O’Sapiens is what we’re
          known as in the animal Kingdom
        of Walt Disney’s incredible journey.

       Let he who has not wished to be back
      in Ireland cast the first aspersion about
       homeless refugees and rough sleepers.

    Empathy is an emotional philanthrope and
the only cost to the altruists is compassion, even
  when beneficiaries are not consciously aware.



Ps.

The first 3 lines are Irish Gaelic meaning

There's no fireside
         like your
      own fireside.

The reference to Yeats
in 3rd verse is pertaining
to his death in France,
But he was exhumed and
brought back to Ireland
and buried in County Sligo.
