- (continued from previous page)I ndíthaigh anacraigh i bhfad ó na cheile
Nuair chas abhaile i gceann aga do laethibh
Chuaidh a athair is mharbhuigh sé laogh dhó
A's an té dfhan sa mbaile níor mharbhuigh sé gé dhó
Tá sé suidhte dearbhtha ag Sasanaigh léigheannta
Go bhfuil an creideamh Caitiliceach ar seacrán éigin
Máthair
Cad ná aca-san le léigeamh na le n-innsint
Acht an rud dfhág lucht an clampar aca sgríobhtha
Ní leanaid do Chríost acht do mhaoin an teampuill
A's tá damaint na mílte ar an mbiobla gall da
MacSguirimís d'ár n-achann is mithidh dúinn réidhtreach
Is mithid dúinn stad má stadmuid ar aon chor
Éirigh ar maidin is ceannuigh dom léine
Pósfad, a chailligh, is ní fanfad a' pléidh leat
bean a' Tighe
Sin í eachdra na caillighe is an daltáin bhréagaigh
Sgríobhtha ar fad síos le brígh is le h-éifeacht
Leigh go sáimh ó bhárr go cúil í
Is fiarfruigh do cáth ciaca bfhearr de'n gcúpla.
