THE LEGEND OF IRELAND’S MAGIC HARP
A lovely Irish lass who loved her father lived in the misty hills of Ireland, a long, long time ago. One
day she went to fetch some wood, but she did not return soon. She
was worried and she cried, but a little band of leprechauns came by. They
asked if they might have a look at her long and golden hair, then they tied the
silken strands across a crooked limb with care. So
they made a magic harp and when the girl touched each strand, the music led
her to her father's home across the misty land. To
this day the harp remains a symbol of the blessings of the home the Irish
dearly love. (Carlo Calzolari, 3^B internaz.)
