Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD CECECFCF| Silent oh Moyle be the roar of thy water | A |
| Break not ye breezes your chain of repose | B |
| While murmuring mournfully Lir's lonely daughter | A |
| Tell's to the night star her tale of woes | B |
| When shall the swan her death note singing | C |
| Sleep with wings in darkness furl'd | D |
| When will heaven its sweet bell ringing | C |
| Call my spirit from this stormy world | D |
| - | |
| Sadly oh Moyle to thy winter wave weeping | C |
| Fate bids me languish long ages away | E |
| Yet still in her darkness doth Erin lie sleeping | C |
| Still doth the pure light its dawning delay | E |
| When will that day star mildly springing | C |
| Warm our isle with peace and love | F |
| When will heaven its sweet bell ringing | C |
| Call my spirit to the fields above | F |
