Would anyone have the words of FR Higgins' beautiful poem Lament for Padraig O Conaire? It starts:

They've paid their last respects in sad tobacco
And silent is the wake house in its haze

and a couple of other lines are

Ah, Padraig of the wide and sea-cold eyes,
So generous, so courteous and noble
The very West was in his soft replies.

I don't think this poem has ever been put to music, though it would make a fabulous song with the right air.
