   Here's a health to you, dear Fr.Hugh (Cassidy) †
   Long may you guide your flock.
   O Connell brave, 'twas he that gave
   The Black Nibs their first knock.
   And George the Fourth; long may you roast,
   And shortly lose your crown!
   But Ballinamore forever more
   To keep the Orange down.

   
   The last verse differs from Tom Creamer's version.
   † Fr. Hugh referred to was Fr. Hugh Cassidy, P.P, Ballinamore who lived where Mr Francis Prior, Contractor, now lives in Ardrum.
   Fr. McGovern who was afterwards Bishop of Ardagh & Clonmcnoise built the Catholic church in Ballinamore in 1820. Additions and improvements were made on it since. Fr. Hugh became P.P after McGovern.
