   Slievenamuck
   That little hill, south of the town of Tipperary,
   How often I trod when a boy,
   Which to me seemed as bright as the land of the fairy,
   In young life's exuberant joy;
   And through the wild gorse and luxuriant heather
   I tripped it as light as a buck,
   In Summer's rich glow and in Winter's wild weather -
   Fionn McCool's famous hill - Slievenamuck
   II
   Galter's tall summits rise proudly behind it,
   So stately, majestic and mild,
   And look like a monitor set there to mind it,
   Or fond mother guarding a child.
   It was by that old hill I was first taught the terror
   Of chains, and my first lesson took,
   In love for my land and the pride to die for her -
   By Fionn's famous hill - Slievenamuck
   III
   To hear the old Senachie glibly recounting,
   My eyes in amaze would grow big -
   How once on the slopes of that historic mountain
   Bold Fionn chased and slew the "black pig".
   But let it be fiction, or let it be fable,
   Or true as the words of the Book,
   If only to gain our last right we are able
   By Fionn's famous hill - Slievenamuck.
