    Success to Billy Byrne! May his name forever shine
    Through Wicklow, Wexford and Kildare and all along the line
    May the Lord have mercy on his soul and all such souls as he,
    Who stood upright for Ireland's cause and died for Liberty.

  2. Ceól an Mhála

    (Ní fios cé dhein.)

    Ceol an Mhála
    An ceól is breaghtha,
    Is córa cáil is éirim,
    Dár chualaidh dáimh,
    Ó seoladh táin
    De phór na bhfáidh go hÉirinn
    Ceól chómh bríoghmhar
    Fóghanta, fighte,
    Le ceól na píbe péarlaidhe
    Ní h eól do rígh,
    Do shlóightibh sídhe
    Ná fós do bhuidhin na héigse
