Amhrán (continued)
“An gcuala tú nó an bhfacha tú scrios ar bith i n-Éirinn ¶ Mar rinne mada Tommy Lee le sicíní Brighid Éamonn”
(continued from previous page)Are you a Roman Catholic or have you education,
Ní bhfuair mé móran scoil ariamh ná oidheachas ar bith ar Bhéarla
Chuaidh mé thríd mo spelling book léigh mé seid nó leabhra play times,
Ní raibh mo mhuinntir achfuineach d'fhág é sin mé ag léigh na h-aimsire
Ach sé an áit a dteigheann ar Aifreann nuair a dteighean n i n-aon áit.

Dh'iultiugh tusa an bhealach sin is na ghéill don Creidimh Gaedhealach
Iomhpuigh leis na Protastúnaigh beidh tlú már duit go do fhamily
Is gheobhaidh tú port ó'n Government is níl ann ach lucht an deirce.
Teigh tusa chuig an tragairt agus biodh d'oilgheas ar do croidhe istigh
Fé cionntach is na peacaigh a chuir fearg ar do Thigearna
Gheobhaidh ó'n maitheahas is ní ar ór é ná ar airgead
Ach rún a bheith go diongmhálta agat
Nach dtuilleadh tú arís iad.(continues on next page)
