  1. An Island in the centre,
    So beautifully laid down,
    And on a fine summers evening,
    When the water it is nice and cool,
    The townspeople go there to bathe,
    It has always kept the rule,
    III
    So get another town,
    I put it to a test,
    That has the scenery of it,
    On the North, South, East and West,
    And if you are not satisfied,
    And think that this won't do
    You can shoot the game,
    That still remains,
    Around old Cnochán Rúadh
