- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)Ah, you sons of Granuaile
Now to remind you of the Gael,
And to let you see our spirits are not going down
Now my voice I'm going to raise
Just to sing a verse in praise
Of our hurling team, the boys of Adamstown
(II)Ah, yes, thou gallant men
Are on top this year again;
But some ago 'twas rumoured they had given up
Well, sure Father Wheeler said
He would wish they would go ahead
And stick the job until they won the cup.
(III)Well, no sooner said than done,
For the boys 'twas only funm,
And well the priest, too, knew he had a team
Of men that would not fret
Or care a pin what teams they met,
He knew Adamstown would always sweep the green.
(IV)Well, now, just to let you hear
Whom they played and beat this year,
And do not think I want to brush them up,
But I'd like to sing their praise
And wish them long bright happy days
To sing/enjoy (?) the honour of their cup.
(V)Now first the Beachers, dressed in red,
And round Wexford town 'twas said
They would lick and play around young Adamstown
But when they tried, without doubt,
They got hurled inside out,
And that is all the honour they could crown
(VI)Now Wexford next was run (?)
And no doubt a splendid team
Who thought themselves the conquerors of renown;
But they never saw or knew
What good hurlers could do
Till the day they met the boys of Adamstown.
(VII)There was Ballymurn still
Who thought they'd work them down the hill,
If you sift that well you'll find out what I mean
From beyond the water boys
They cut the cawmeens (?) from their eyes
And brought the laurels back to Adamstown again.
(VIII)Well now next a right good team
From this place up here called Caim
They got the greatest licking of them all;
Well they all played their best
'But went down like all the rest
And they're not matches for old Adamstown at all.- Bailitheoir
