   The following song was written by James McGuarty, who lived in the townland of Gub, in the parish of Glangevlin, Co Cavan

   'Glangevlin's Valley Fair'

   1.
   You heavenly muses I pray excuse us
   Of bards intrusion I mean to sing
   Inspire my brain to write a theme
   A feeble mind for to reveal
   Glangevlin fair my hearts appeal
   It is to record your dignity
   Record your name, extend your fame
   And set your suffering children free.

   2.
   The sons so rare, I do declare
   And are so handsome, as you may see
   Thy daughters pure I can assure
   For virtue faith and chastity
   Go search this island o'er and o'er
   And all around Britania fair.
   And you will find no place
   Where the saints can rest
   Like sweet Glangevlin's valley fair.

   3.
   There is fertile union for to be found
   And a warm grasp for friendships hand
   But charity doth here abound
