   It was the first day of November in the year of '69
   The day we will remember until the end of time
   When Erin's sons were called upon to seek their lawful rights
   By leading men of England with Gladstone grey
   and bright
   Erin's sons wore green cockades her daughters clad in white
   Their joyful cries would rent the skies '' Hooray for tenants right ''
   It was the hour of one o clock the speaker took the chair
   A gentleman of noble birth brave Councillor McGuire
   The ruler of Swanlinbar long live his fame
   In history you will clearly see Lords of his race and name
   The annals of his pedigree would strike the tory dumb
   His ancestors were owners once of Florencecourt and Crum
   His sympathy for Ireland the Parliament will view
   For his forefathers sat in the reign of King Born
   A clergyman next took the chair his name I can reveal
   Brave Father Pat O Reilly from the Parish of Swanlinbar
   That God on high way be his guide and raise
