'I am under the shielding of
good Brigid each day,
I am under the shielding of
good Brigid each night.
I am under her keeping,
Each early and late,
every dark, every light.
Brigid is my comrade woman.
Brigid is my maker of song,
Brigid is my helping woman,
My choicest of women.
My woman of guidance.
Carmina Gadelica
