    Showed her the dwelling,
    Where he was born in days gone by,
    And as she lamented he freely ventured,
    To roam with the victim of,
    The Evil Eye.
    Young maidens exquisite,
    If e'er ye visit.
    The rival mansion.
    Of that far named Jin
    Be wise be weary of Culleary.
    For he is the savel monster of the divel's din.
    Poor old Jinnie for many a penny.
    Yourn fingers skinie with great greed,
    It will come the day mam
    When six feet of clay Mam.
    Shall hide for ever you and your seed.
    Muire Scriude Mam
    What shall we do Mam.
    For to cure the victim of the Evil Eye.
