In Glenravel’s Glen there lives a man whom some would call a god

Where are your sacks of barley, will your likes be seen again?

Heres a jig to the man and a reel to the drop and a swing to the girl he loves
F# C# B C#
May your fiddle play and poitín cure your company up above
[Verse 2]

Theres a wisp of smoke to the south of the Glen and the poitín is on the air
