Tá Dia láidir
Agus rinne Sé an chruinne
Thóg Sé mar mhuintir
Na Giúdaigh, gach duine.
Ach rinne Sé botún
Nuair a gheall Sé a dtír dóibh;
Ní dhearna na brealsúin
Slad ceart ar an bhfód,
Ach d'iompaigh siad ar a sáil,
Agus theip ar Dhia na Fola
An rud ba mhó Leis a fháil,
Mar ní raibh Uaidh ach an ola.
A Satire
By James Norton
God is strong,
And He made the world;
He took for his people
The Jews, each person.
But He made a mistake
When He promised their land to them;
The blunderers didn't
Slaughter properly on the spot,
But turned on their heels,
And the God of Blood failed
To get the thing He most desired,
Since He only wanted the oil.
