   And loudly the waters that form the deep cascade
   Roll down in wild haste into deep Pohl-an-Eas
   Clonmany’s bright river glides forth in its beauty
   From the lake of Mindoran to Binons calm bay;
   Its waters roll on amid wild rural gardens
   And sparkle like gems 'neat the sun’s golden ray.

   At its feet gently ripples Strabreggs blue bay
   Where Manannan oft in his light boat of magic
   Sped swiftly o'er billows in dazzling array.
