  1. (continued from previous page)
    Ó'’s do bhíos-sa tamall go lán -mhaith,
    Do bhí scilling im’ láimh agus raol,
    Bhí mo phlíoma capaill go sásta
    Ó do ghlanfadh a’ pháil de léim.
    Bhí mo chóraid bhainne ar a' bhfásach
    Is ní thagfadh a’ báille im’ ghaor,
    Ó ’s a’ triall ar a’ mbaile nuair a thánga
    Níorbh ionad ró-fháilteach é.
    "Ó 'gus nára Dé bheatha-sa id’ shláinte."
    "'Sé deir mo mháithrín féin.
    "Óch a stúmpa bodaig gan náire
    Cár imthíghis ar fán ó ’ndé?."
    Do bhínn-se a’ machtnamh ar áitribh
    'Gus do chúmainn go h-áluinn bréag,
    Óch ag ínnsint startha dhom bhán - chnis
    Ar chathaibh Fionn Trágha na laoch.
