I See, I See

Francis, dear Francis So glad you've come along Francis, dear Francis That's why I write this song The Vatican is a lonely place The good gets thrown back In your face Francis, dear Francis! Do not cry, Argentina Or get caught in a trance Your son of that great country He learned the tango dance! And waltzing Matilda Is not far away I stop and salute you As we gather to pray! Francis, dear Francis Don't shed a tear Your friends in Vaticano They are always near The sky is blue The smoke is white May God help you Make it through the night! © 2013 Jarír Al-Majár

A poem which appeared around the pubs of Galway after Pope Francis' election.
