    May Mary, Christ and all the Saints be between us and harm.
    Mary and her Son,
    Patrick with his staff,
    Martin with his mantle,
    Brigid with her hood,
    Michael with shield,
    And God before then all with His strong right arm.
    God bless and save us all.
    May Patrick, Brigid and Colmcille guard each wall.
    May the Queen of Heaven and the angels bright
    Keep us and our house from harm this night.
    We adore thee O Christ.
    And bless thee.
    Because by the holy cross
    Thou has redeemed the world.
