    Teampall Nuadh
    (Another Version)
    Chorus.
    Sweet Teampall Nuadh where our tears do freely flow,
    O'er the graves of them that nursed us long ago,
    May high Heaven smile upon them and her choices of gifts bestow
    On the graves of our loved sleepers Teampall Nuadh.
    II
    Beneath that hoary gable that defies the wreck of time
    Great O Correllan, the harper is laid low.
    *He who charmed prince and peasant with his melodies sublime
    Fills a silent nameless grave in Teampall Nuadh.
    Chorus
    Sweet Teampall Nuadh etc.
    * New lines here with different words.
