The Descent of Brigid/The genealogy of the holy maiden Brigid
Radiant flame of gold, noble foster-mother of Christ,
Brighid the daughter of Dugall the brown,
Son of Aodh, son of Art, son of Conn,
Son of Criara, son of Cairbre,
Son of Cas, son of Cormac, son of Cartach, son of Carruin.
Every day and every night
That I say the genealogy of Bríde,
I shall not be killed, I shall not be harried,
I shall not be put in cell, I shall not be wounded,
Neither shall Christ leave me in forgetfulness.
No fire, no sun, no moon shall burn me,
No lake, no water,
