    The meeting of Cootehill
    By Pat Traynor
    Arise you gallant Irishmen united let us stand
    Look out about your lawful rights and banish Cromwell's clan
    The enemy you plainly see will fight against us still
    On our Lady's day we showed them play
    At the meeting of Cootehill
    Verse II
    From all the surrounding parishes
    In splendour they did go
    From Ballybay and Monaghan
    Killevan and Bunnoe
    From Lavey Laragh Muff and Bawn
    And likewise Denn and Kill
    And bold Knockbride it was their pride
    The meeting in Cootehill
