You can find the lyrics in Old Irish (from the source Philippa posted above) and in Modern Irish and English here. I posted these to the tune thread when I should have put them here. Apologies.

see Bí-Se i mo Shúil You'll get English for "Be thou my vision" there also.
You can get the original, Old Irish "Rop tú mo bhaile", at Corpus of Electronic Texts
The air is very similar to THE BANKS OF THE BANN (one of the songs by that name anyway, the one I've directed you to!)

Can anyone give me the words in Gaelic to the first verse of this hymn? I need them yesterday. Thanks
