Who was he at Kilmallock, the brave hearted stranger,
Who daringly breasted the fire of the foe
Like a veteran enured to the battle's grim danger
He fought till the red hail of death laid him low
Nameless he fell on the frozen sward[?] dying,
No kind hand to soothe him of bear him away
The dreary March wind his sad litany sighing
His death couch and pillow the blood moistened clay.
When the brave few who struck for their old land returned
Outnumb'id not routed betrayed not defeated
Their gallant young comrade who fought so elated
Pour'd out his hearts blood where behind them he lay. IIGovy and cold by the wayside they found him
Beneath the bleak freezing sky lifeless and lone
He wore the loved badge of the Virgin around him
But the name of the patriot to all was unknown
Was he one of those whom our flunk eyes so loyal,
With the foul name assassins so shamefully banned
Whose faithful young bosoms but longed for the trial
To shed their dear blood for their suffering land
But prouder your fate gallant lover of Erin
To die for your country her native green wearing
Than bear the high name that some traitors are bearing
With the gold of the spoiler polluting your hand(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)
