   Thousands came from every place the glorious sight to see
   Horse racing, and cock fighting and every spree,
   Pipers Fiddlers Dancers came to the Bush of Ardleny.

   The Kiernan's and the Reilly's the Coyle's and the Leddy's
   Put Gibson and his Yeomen that daydown on their knees,
   They surrounded the still huntsmen, and made them beg mercy,
   But they wounded Captain Kiernan at the bush of Ardleny
   It would take nobler pen than mine to write this tradhety and to tell all that was witnessed at our old and ancient tree
   Thousands of our Ardleny men that are now in America.
   They will shed a tear when the news they hear of the Bush of Ardleny.

   This ancient bush is now blown down
   It will never bloom again.
   [?] over the hill of Ardleny no more it will be seen,
   Farewell, Farewell, Sweet Ardleny bush,
   Good-bye Good-bye to thee.
