Nár imí na daoine as an oileán aoibhinn
Nó go mbeidh siad cinnte dho ríocht na ngrást,
Go rabh siad bailithe ag Pádraic Naofa
Thug an creideamh dílis go hInis Fáil.

Translation

May the people not leave the pleasant island
Until they are certain of the kingdom of mercy,
May they be collected by Saint Patrick
Who brought the true faith to Ireland.
