    Go cúl an tighe,
    A chuaichín buidhe na dtor:
    Hóra, hára, heidhre hop,
    Cé mhéid adharc ar pheidhre poc?"

    Dá ndéanfá dearmad ar fochal chaithfeá duine d'iomchar ar do dhrom.

  2. Gráinne Mhaol

    Aréir a' machtnamh 'mo leabaidh bhíos,
    Ar eachtraibh gaisgidheach in Éirinn bhí,
    Ar chródhacht sleagha, ar dhánacht laoch-
    'Sar imtheachta banamhla Ghráinne Mhaoil.

    Fá réim ar fhairrge, mór a gníomh,
    Bú mhear a coiscéim i siubhal ghníodh;
    Dá theócha an cath san mbearnain bhaoghail,
    Níor mheath a misneach ar Ghráinne Mhaol.

    Is iomdha fothrach san iarthar atá
    Bhí 'na chaislean breágh aoibhinn tráth -
    'Na teampall manaigh nó 'na dún ag Gaodhal,
    'S iad i seilbh ag Gráinne Mhaol.
