- Phil Joe Traynor is my name,
Ireland is my nation,
Ladunigan is my native place,
And heaven's my expectation,

And when my bones are rotton,
This little rhyme will tell my name,
When I am quite forgotton. - Transcription guide » You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
