    Bean ag cois Ínse ag caoineadh a h-athar. Bhí sí i bhfad ó bhaile. Bhí an t-athair i na chomhnuide i dteannta mhic, ach nuair a cailleadh é tháinig an t-ingean abhaile go dí an tórramh. Do dhein an t-ingean caoine do'n athair
    "Mo ghrád is mo chroidhe" arsan t-ingean.
    "Ba mhór le rádh do eachtra,
    Nuair a báidhfeadh muc di chuid bainne
    Idir dá Chéadaoin an Earraigh,
    Agus muinntir an Ínse gann ó bhainne."
    Lean bean a Mhic lé agus dubhairt
    "A straoilín buidhe ealaigh
    Ná cuir breág go deó ar mhairbh,
    Agus go mór mhór ar t'athair
    Mar ní muc é ach banbh,
    Agus ní leis féín an bainne
    Ach é bailiú tríd a mbaile."
