He left Annagloor as a young man
Ordained as a Catholic priest he lived for many years in Los Angeles in the U S of A
From Millstreet in distance very far away
He lived a successful life as success goes
From a priest to a monsignor up the ranks he rose
He lived to a good age ninety four years
His passing in his Los Angeles parish left many in tears
He did forego the chance of taking a wife
And of fathering children to follow his calling in life
For his religious beliefs great sacrifices by him were made
For this from memory he does not deserve for to fade
To Monsignor Donal Mulcahy credit is surely due
To his higher self in life he was one who was true
Selfless people one can say have become a rare breed
And of his sort humanity of far more is in need
Far from Annagloor where he first saw light of day
He breathed his last in los Angeles in the U S of A
A book on his life it would make a good read
Since it was by good example in life he did lead.
