182. The Gravel Charm

EOLAS ta agam air a ghalar fhuail, Air a ghalar a ta buan; Eolas ta agam air a ghalar dhearg, Air a ghalar a ta garg.

Mar a ruitheas abhuinn fhuar, Mar a mheileas muileann luath, Fhir a dh'orduich tir is muir, Casg air fhuil, ruith air fhual.

An ainm Athar, agus Mic, An ainm Spioraid Naoimh.

I HAVE a charm for the gravel disease, For the disease that is perverse I have a charm for the red disease, For the disease that is irritating.

As runs a river cold, As grinds a rapid mill, Thou who didst ordain land and sea, Cease the blood and let flow the urine.

In name of Father, and of Son, In name of Holy Spirit.
