    D'Eirigh mé fhéin go moch ar maidin
    In ainm an Athar agus an Spiorad Naomh
    Dhearc mé uaim ó thuaidh 's ó dheas díom
    Agus bhí droch deallramh ag teacht ar an ngréin
    In a dhiaidh sin fhéin tháinig smaointe im' anam
    Tarraingt suas ar Eaglais Dé
    A leithéid de cheo 's abhí ar Bhóthair an Gheata
    Ní cuimhneach le [?] abhfuil beo ar an saoghal
    II
    Tosochad-sa thíos ag Gob an Chaisil
    Poll an Chapaill agus Sráid an [?]Chaid
    Cruinneochad liom-sa an Dá Mhaoireathain
    Siar le cladach go Barr Trágha
    Níor fhág mé cliudh ná ceard ar an bfhaid sin
    Go ndeachaidh mé siar go Céim an Áir
    Agus bhí a oiread daoine an lá sin ag freastal
    An [?]Yard ag an Athair Seán
