he poem, written by poet Johnny Broderick and recorded by Moore, is a celebration of the life and legacy of the President of Ireland recorded to mark his last year in office, after serving two terms. Speaking of how the work came about, the singer said, "I was working in Gavin Murphy's Studio. Gavin shared music he was composing for a poem John Broderick had written in advance of President Michael D’s departure from Áras and Úachtaráin. "I read the poem and listened to the music. I offered to recite the words. Claddagh Records heard it and suggested we make it available to the public." Moore added, "I think it is a beautiful tribute to our esteemed President and his family. I think Johnny B’s words express what many of us feel about Michael D. and, Our First Lady, Sabina." Filmed by Ronan Nissenbaum, the video sees Dublin-based artist Aches, who specialises in large scale murals and graffiti, creating a portrait of the President.
