1. An Chill Bhán

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   Tá iarsmaí seana-chille i gCill Bhán a leagadh le Cromul nuair a tháinig sé go hÉirinn 'sa bhliain 1649.

   Tá tobar a ghabhann leis an gcill seo ann Leis. Chreid na daoine go raibh comhacht leigheasa 'sa 'san uisce 'san tobar sin agus sé ba bhun leis an gcreideamh san ná go raibh bean ann 'sa tsean-aimsir a chuir an uisce sin ar chneadha agus créachca a bhí ar a géaga agus ní fada gur leigheasadh iad. Sin é an cúis gur chreid na daoine go bhféádfadh an t-uisce iad féin do léigheas.

2. The Boys of Adamstown

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   Well after that I heard them saying
   They'd let the Fintans win a game
   The way they'd have the Beachers runners-up
   They said, another gate, another day
   Another hour they'd have to play
   Then everyone will see who'll win the cup

   (X)

   Now the Beachers came like men
   To try for honour once again
   And knew 'twas then or never for renown
   But when the final hour was up
   They'd lost the game and lost the cup
   And had to leave it with the boys of Adamstow

   
   (XI)

   Now I don't want you to delay
   But get the Poem, (?) you'll see (?) the play
   Afraid you think I want to run them down;
   But here and there men can be found
   On their sticks their limping round
   After trying to play the boys of Adamstown.

   
   (XII)

   Now I'll finish up by saying
   I wish good luck to all the team
   And hope their fine form never will break down
   And the cup they have tonight
   Is an honour shining bright
   Upon the heads of the Gaels of Adamstown.
