    Is mac maith domh athair mé
    'S gan dearmad mo mháhair
    Is minic a bhí na Gearaltaig
    I ngradam ar na Grága
    Airgead Tinnteáin fós níor dhíolais
    Prócadóír ná bhaille
    Is na cúirteanna gearra
    Ní glaodhtar m'ainm
    'S an deamhas a bhfaghadh dom cháirde(?)

    Curfá
    Mo bha mo chaoire gheala thú
    Mo chruach agus mo stáca
    Is minic a bhí na Gearaltaig
    Fé ghradaim is na Grága.

    Mo chasóg a bhíonn straichthe
    gan dearmad mo charabhat
    Bíodh na h-aon nídh maithe'gat
    Acht Teangmhaidh liom amáireach

    Curfá
