  1. Ar Bruach na Laoi

    Share Share Post
    Ar bruach na Laoí ins an oidhche a casadh mé,
    Gan buairt ar m-aigne a shamhluigheas féin,
    Go ndeigheas faid slíghe le Dia mo mearathail,
    I gcúntaibh daingeana nár bhfeár di mé,
    Ní fheicinn an spéir le h-aon corp eagla,
    Is dá nochtfhadh an ré ní fhéadfhainn amharca,
    Go déigheas mhaitheas dom ghlaodhach ná d'aoinne freagairt dom,
    Ag fuaim gach caise is i gcárthaibh éan.
    Do shuidheasa-sa síos go sgíosfar achtuirseach,
    Gan súil le casadh go brách le'm shaoghal,
    Trí sháiltir draighean go fillthe taiscithe,
    Gan do chlúda leabtha le fághail ach é,
    Do dearias - a ríog bhean fé síod na bratainn
    Do cealladh mé im croidhe le síodaibh daingeana,
    A shamail sa tír le'm línn ní fheaca-sa,
    Siad úd scamail ar mhnáibh a t-saoghail.
