Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBCB DEDEFBFB| Let Erin remember the days of old | A |
| Ere her faithless sons betray'd her | B |
| When Malachi wore the collar of gold | A |
| Which he won from her proud invader | B |
| When her kings with standard of green unfurl'd | C |
| Led the Red Branch Knights to danger | B |
| Ere the emerald gem of the western world | C |
| Was set in the crown of a stranger | B |
| - | |
| On Lough Neagh's bank as the fisherman strays | D |
| When the clear cold eve's declining | E |
| He sees the round towers of other days | D |
| In the wave beneath him shining | E |
| Thus shall memory often in dreams sublime | F |
| Catch a glimpse of the days that are over | B |
| Thus sighing look through the waves of time | F |
| For the long faded glories they cover | B |
