Seanie Murphy

Seanie died in mid life unexpectedly and young
He was a nice and gentle fellow who had a civil tongue
For his mother Margaret and his siblings and his nephews and nieces this a sorrowed cross
And his many friends too they will grieve at his loss.

In Cloghoulabeg never to be seen again
But in all of those who knew him fond memories will remain
Of a likeable fellow untainted by conceit
He now is at rest amongst the dead of Millstreet.

A credit to Cloghoulabeg his beloved Homeplace
At the Murphy family gatherings his will be a missed face
But if there is a hereafter no need for him to pray
His soul will be up there in heaven today.

He was such a good person in every way
And respect to his memory we ought to pay
To the scythe of the Reaper we are destined to fall
And death is a certainty for one and all.
