Cuimhnich Air Na daoine o’n d’tha’inig thu.
Christopher Gordon Williams 1953 (Hobart)
Remember the people from who you came
For this life would just not be the same
Had they not come and lived before
I would not be able to write more.
For those who lived in peace, trouble & strife
I would not be here, having a life.
Blessed forebears lovingly remembered
Researched remembered fanning memory’s embers,
In the present, a gift for the future,
Families’ traditions for future generations nurtured.
