I am Ireland, Lady Gregory\Padraig Pearse.

I am Ireland.
by Lady Gregory, from the Irish of Padraig Pearse.

I am Ireland,
Older than the Hag of Beara.

Great my pride,
I gave birth to brave Cuchulain.

Great my shame,
My own children killed their mother.

I am Ireland,
Lonelier than the Hag of Beara.
