Chorus:

'Se/ mo laoch, mo Ghile Mear

'Se/ mo ChaesarGile Mear

Suan na/ se/an ni/ bhfuaireas fe/in

O/ chuaigh i gce/in mo Ghile Mear

Grief and pain are all I know

My heart is sore

My tears a'flow

We saw him go ....

No word we know of him...

Chorus

A proud and gallant cavalier

A high man's scion of gentle mean(?)

A fiery blade engaged to reap(?)

He'd break the bravest in the field

Chorus

Come sing his praise as sweet harps play

And proudly toast his noble frame

With spirit and with mind aflame

So wish him strength and length of day

Chorus
