- The Youths of Sweet Redhill
I
Young men I pray and maidens gay
United both one and all
A noble land of youths so grand
Your actions I'll recall
Each gallant news would not refuse
To guide my slender quill
Till I relate the praises great
Of the youths of sweet Redhill
II
In unity they do agree no matter where they roam
Those heroes brave no longer care
For either friend or foe
With each fair lass they take a glass
And fear no landlords bill
May heaven smile on Erin's isle
And the youths from Sweet Redhill
III
In Cavan town of high renown
Their praises I'll uphold
Belturbet town and Clones
Your credits I'll enfold
And on straight way to Ballybay
Through Shercock and Cootehill
My voice I'll raise to sing the praise(continues on next page)- Informant
