  1. Teampall Nuadh
    I
    Oh! I love to see that churchyard on Lough Gur's romantic shore,
    Where the shamrocks and the ivy every grow,
    Where the wild doves and the raven like protecting spirits soar,
    O'er the green graves of Teampall Nuadh
    Chorus
    Oh Sweet Teampall Nuadh, where our tears so freely flow
    On the graves of those that nursed us long ago
    May high Heaven smile upon thee and its choicest gifts bestow
    On the shades of thy loved sleepers Teampall Nuadh.
