Shannon inghean Bhriain uí Dhuilleáin - Order of the Silver Wheel

Far and wide Shannon’s wandered 

Now settled, We’ve watched her words

As she comes before crowds

Calling loud, and heard in clouds

More than solely moments stood

She’s maker of many goods

Now does East discern her flame,

Dedication deserves acclaim

King Donovan presides court

With Megha Queen, the consort

Together, ruling Tygers

Track her trails so to praise her: 

Shannon inghean Bhriain uí Dhuilleáin

Recipient of the Silver Wheel

 As done in the Barony of Stonemarche at BIRKA, AS LX
