1. The Unladylike Shannon (ar lean)

   (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)

   In the broad and wide Atlantic she pours this hissing flood
   With bushes, gates, straws, turf and hay, all well mixed up with mud.

   The men to write the story of the Shannon and her banks
   Are not the men from cities, or the wild poetic cranks.
   But the farmers with the meadows from which sails off the hay
   Or the men who clamp the turf the dear old Shannon sweeps away.

   Or the men in lowly homesteads often flooded to the beams -
   To these the river Shannon is the cruellest of streams.
   (Although I'm writing this, I love its every weir and dyke.
   In all its woods it yields me Salmon, Trout and Pike).
   A.O.E.B.
