The original Old Irish text, Rop tú mo Baile is often attributed to Dallán Forgaill in the 8th century.[1] The text had been a part of Irish monastic tradition for centuries before its setting to the tune, therefore, before it became an actual hymn[2]. It was translated from Old Irish into English by Mary E. Byrne, M.A., in Ériu (the journal of the School of Irish Learning), in 1905. The English text was first versified by Eleanor H. Hull, in 1912, and is now the most common text used.[3]
