    “A chailín óg atá i mbéal an phobail”

    A chailín óg atá i mbéal an phobail
    Is deas agus is ciúin é do gháire
    Acht cia bé táilliúir a rinne do chulaith
    Acht go deimhin bhí sé i ngrádh leat.
    II
    Thóg sé do mheisiúr síos go talamh
    Ag thart le bun do bhásta
    Acht níl fhios agam féin an é seo an fáisiún
    Na rufaí bheith ag sguabadh na sráide

    Is buachaill mé atá le pósadh
    Bígí ar tuairisg mná dhom
    ........

    IV
    Caithim síol go deas i dtalamh
    Is go leor i dtaltaí bána
    Mo lámh ar an gcéacht i ndiaidh na gcapall
    Is go dtreabhfainn na cnuic le fánaidh
