  2. An Old Prayer

    Share Share Post
    In ngairdín Parthas a tá'n paidrín páirteach
    A' moladh na mná a bhí a riamh gan locht
    Ó aon-mhic Mhuire 'gus a Rí-gheal na ngrásta
    Ná feic fan ar m'anam bocht.

    (II)

    Nách maith an socair Mac-Dé
    'Gus nach maith an baisteadh a ghníonn sé
    Bháist sé Naomh Éoin Báiste
    Agus bhaist Naomh Éoin Baiste é
    Annsin d'eirigh cáthú amach roimhe
    'A chrochadh, 'á chéasadh 'gus 'a spíonuil
    ar an gcrioc

    'Cé'r bhé duine a dearas an paidir seo naoi n-uaire gach tráth beidh naoi n-anamnaca, naoi n-uaire as Pargadóir leis agus a anam féin glan.
