Chaneil mo shul air Calbharaigh My eye is not on Calvary
No air Bethlehem an aigh Or on blessed Bethlehem
Ach air cuil ghrod an Glaschu But on a putrid back alley in Glasgow
Far a bheil an lobhadh fas Where everything rots as it grows
Agus air seomar an Duneidin And on a room in Edinburgh
Seomar bochdain is craidh A room of poverty and suffering
Far a bheil an aoghainn creachdainn Where the infant, all scabs and sores
Ri aonagraich gu bhas Wallows 'til death
