A true story of love at first sight. A song of finding that grá geal (bright love) and never letting go...

Princess of Queens 
The Ballad of Patricia Hoblin - Lyrics
By Máirtín de Cógáin

Chorus:
She was the Princess of Queens
Fell in love in her teens
A brown eyed young brunette
With her hair in a Bonnet
And he was the man of her dreams
She was the Princess of Queens

1.
Back from his Alaskan parade
To a party in Nyack he strayed
Where he spied this young maiden
At the friends house she stayed in
And knew his own match had been made
Yes, he knew his own match had been made

2.
A man of just twenty three
At first sight a devout devotee
When he left her for Orangeburg
She took him there at his word
And long distant writers they'd be
Long distant writers they'd be

3.
At twenty one said that she'd marry
She'd no interest in a William or a Harry
They went and saw the world
Brought up two boys and a girl
And lived for each and the three
Yes, they lived for each and the three
