   And how they brought the laurels of many a sporting green
   And when this game is over we'll write a line or two
   And then we'll tell the Munster boys what Leinster men can do.

   III
   Kilkenny Marble City may you forever shine
   And wear the wreath of laurels most noble and sublime
   And when the players are coming home the girls in crowds will run
   To welcome their Kilkenny boys at the setting of the sun.

   IV
   If Kikennymen lose victory they take with a smile
   They wouldn't show dishonour for the gold of Erin's isle
   In honour of the Archbishop that raised this noble play
   The brightest start of Munster but lately passed away.

   V
   When Limerick won at Jone's Road most powerful did they boast
   And how they beat Kilkenny and drove Walton through the post.
   With shouts and cries that reached the skies that night in Limerick town
   And the fishes raced to listen as the Shannon waves rolled down.
