    Teampall Nua
    IV
    Those ivy mantled castles over-shadowing the waves,
    Oft resounded his melodies also,
    But their halls are long deserted
    and their old defenders brave,
    Slumber round him in silent
    Teampall Nuadh
    Chorus
    Sweet Teampall Nuadh etc.
    V
    Tradition says the Vean-sidhe
    caoined a sad and lonely wail,
    With a grief human bosums never know
    And she paced those ancient rampart
    towering o'er the sunny vale
    When the laid him in silent
    Teampall Nuadh
    Chorus
    Sweet Teampall Nuadh etc.
