Ta ny reiltee Vannin camlaagagh,
|
The rulers of Mann are perverse,
|
|
Noi leighyn bannee Yee;
|
Against the bleesed laws of God;
|
|
T’ad eulyssagh as molteyragh,
|
They are hot-headed and rogueish,
|
|
Ayns shilley dagh Creestee.
|
In every Christian’s sight.
|
|
T’ad dy-kinjagh jannoo leighyn,
|
They are constantly making laws,
|
|
As t’ad brisht dy-chooilley laa;
|
And they are broken every day;
|
|
T’ad gleck ayns cooishyn cammey,
|
They struggling in crooked affairs,
|
|
Myr shen t’ad ceau nyn draa.
|
And thus they spend their time.
|
|
T’ad litçheragh as moyrnagh,
|
They are lazy and proud,
|
|
T’ad craidoilagh ayns corree dewil;
|
In savage anger they are sarcastic;
|
|
As sonnaasagh dy-mooaralagh,
|
And haughtily seditious,
|
|
Lesh miolaghyn y Jouyl.
|
With the temptations of the Devil.
|
|
Cha vel creenaght oc ny tushtey,
|
They have neither wisdom not knowledge,
|
|
Ayns saynt t’ad jollyssagh;
|
In covetnous they are greedy;
|
|
Myr thooillaghyn dy hushtey,
|
They are like the floods of water
|
|
Lesh cree mee-viallagh.
|
With disobedient hearts.
|
|
S’mennick t’ad ceau nyn oie dy-peccoil,
|
Often they spend their nights sinfully,
|
|
Ayns rouanys as peccah;
|
In wantonness and sin;
|
|
As myr shen t’ad dy-kinjagh rouail,
|
And thus they are constantly erring,
|
|
As baarail argid sleih elley.
|
And spending other people’s money.
|
|
Eshyn ta cuirr mee-chairys,
|
He who sows unrighteousness,
|
|
Bee soost e hranlaase[1] er ny vrishey;
|
The flail of his tyranny shall be broken;
|
|
As nee eh buinn ayns fardalys,
|
And he shall reap in vain,
|
|
Ec kione y jerrey.
|
At the end of his life
