“Tá caillea' beag buidhe insan thiar...”
Máire Nic Chon Mhidhe.
Tá caillea'beag buidhe insan thiar i Martrí
Is í ag tochas a culair .Olann ní fhásann ar na gcaoiribh dí suas.Ná an lion ní tigeann dí suas
Má tá an cuigeann sa tslíghe diobhál diong le na luinigthe mhór
Níl aon mhaith dhomh-sa suidhe
Níl in a cainnt ach gliogar ar cuairt .
The above was composed by a poor travelling woman who begged alms and was refused in Martree in this vicinity .I heard this from Denis O Loughlin Cuillenagh who heard it from his mother Mrs O Loughlin never went to school and never spoke but Irish.
M Mee.
