Poll (German: Köln-Poll) is a quarter of the city of Cologne, in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is part of the borough of Porz.

Poll was already inhabited during the New Stone Age; etymologically the name originates in a meaning like Swamp. The first documentary mentioning of Poll was on 1. April 1003[1] by monks from Divitia (modern day Deutz). The village Poll was suburbanized in 1889 and became a quarter of Cologne.

Lift The Wings

by: Bill Whelan

How can the small flowers grow
If the wild winds blow
And the cold snow is all around
Where will the frail birds fly
If their home on high
Have been torn down to the ground
Lift the Wings
That carry me away from here and
Fill the Sail
That breaks the line to home
But when I'm miles and miles apart from you
I'm beside you when I think of you - a Stóirín a Grá
How can a tree stand tall
If a rain won't fall
To wash its branches down
How can the heart survive
Can it stay alive
If its love's denied for long
Lift the Wings
That carry me away from here and
Fill the Sail
That breaks the line to home
But when I'm miles and miles apart from you
I'm beside you when I think of you - a Stóirín
And I'm with you when I think of you - a Stóirín
