No one whose heart is heavy with human tears

Can cross these little cressets of the wood.

Be not afraid, the Father is with us,

And all the nine angelic hierarchies,

The Holy Martyrs and the Innocents,

The adoring Magi in their coats of mail,

And He who died and rose on the third day,

And Mary with her seven times wounded heart.

Cry daughter to the Angels and the Saints.

And gaze upon a merrier multitude:

White-armed Nuala and Ardroe the Wise,

Feacra of the hurtling foam, and him

Who is the ruler of the western host,

Finvarra, and their Land of Heart's Desire,
