    “Tá fuacht ar mo ghuailnib is mo loirigni breac
    Is ní thiubhfrainn iasacht na luaithredhe do'n chat"
    “Tobac tar éis bídh is ar bhean an tíghe tá sin
    Is ní gaduidhe dá dtéigheann an tír nach rí-beag an cios dhó sin”
    Micheal Ó Éanacáin, Gort-na-Chuilinn, an tSraith (60)

    Tiocfhaidh an samhradh is fásfaid an féar
    Tiocfhaidh na duilleabhair ar bharra na gcraobh
    Tiocfhaidh mo ghrádh-sa lé conghnamh Dé
    Go sinfheadh sí i bfus ar ?
    Tá an oidhche seo dorachada agus béidh go lá
    D'imthigh mo ghrádh uaim ní fhéadaim a fághail
    Siud ar chnuic (chnoc) móinti? is ar chnoc mhór árd
    Dé? ní phósfhad go bfuighidh mé bás.

    Tá piopa fada cailce agam
    Is bosca lán dé shnaoisín
    Tá buidéal uisge bheathadh agam
    Is na barailli beith lionta ?
