  1. Amhrán - Taobh na Carraige Báine

    Share Share Post
    Treabhadóir mé agus us maith mo chuid síl,
    Agus tá sin ag chomhursa
    Is iomadha sin talamh a threabh mé riamh
    Agus is beag atá bharr mo shláinte.
    Bhainfinn - se féar ar iochtar a chnuic
    Déanfainn-se cruaic i stáca
    Agus damhsa an ríl le rún mo chroidhe At thaobh na carraige baine.
    Tusa agus mise bheirth pósta
    le lan toil cead athar agus mathar
    Agus an maighdhean óg
    Nach mhilis do phóg
    Ar thaobh na carraige baine
    B'fearr liom féin na bhfacha mé riamh
    Na saidhbhreas Rí na Foghna
    Tú bheith agam a stór mo chroidhe
    agus mé bheith ól do chláinte.
