    Bhí mé oidhche geimhridh intean chois Bóine
    Go cé aoibheann ach a mhaighdhean
    Le seilte an tráthnóna
    Ar a togach bhreágh riabach
    'Gus an dialuigh sráin óir buidhe
    Gus i ag marcuigeacht
    Go mbireach le mire an Cuil Óir Buidhe

    Óg gan i bealaig búidhe (Beala)
    Gus gur mbéal tu mise
    As deús móige
    Le do claon mín bealuigh
    Is gur geall tu mé a phósadh
    Tug mo croidhe gean duit
    Beir liom féin ba leór dom
    Gus tá mé lan cinte nach liom thú san tráthnóna
    3
    Nach m aith daithris fá do duit
    Sul má póg mé ariamh do béilín
