This is The Waterboys' version of the William Butler Yeats poem. The original poem goes like this:
I will arise & go now, & go to Innisfree,
& a small cabin build there, of clay & wattles made;
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey-bee,
& live alone in the bee-loud glade.
& I shall have some peace there, for peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket sings;
There midnight’s all a glimmer, & noon a purple glow,
& evening full of the linnet’s wings.
I will arise & go now, for always night & day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore;
While I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.
