The story told to Cygnets as they are leaving the Cygnets to join the Brígíns goes as follows 
So little C.G.I. Cygnets
	Grow into beautiful swans
		And take flight
			To join all other Cygnets
				In the Brigin Company
					At the other side of the lake
						And they all lived happily ever after.
