    Nac agam atá an stocach
    Tá mór oibre ar m'aireachas,
    Igcomhnuidhe faoi easanóir
    Is ag obair mar an Turk.
    Nuair a théighim amac ag romhar
    Is ag stroiceadh is ag deargadh
    Bhfearr liom na sraitheacha na eadan an chnuic

    Bhainfeadh se poll mónadh, gróigeadh agus sgarfadh sé
    Ceol binn aigeanta a bhaineadh seisean port
    In aimsear codlata igcomhnuidhe soghmhar a rachadh sé
    Is i cósta na maidne ní éirigh as an pluid.
    Dhéanfadh sé an phiopa líonta agus deargadh
    Is aige féin go fairsing a gheobhfadh se tobach
    Bosca den snaoisín is é lán mar an canister
    Ro-deas a bhreacfadh sé an buidhe agus an geal.
    Fuair Máire Ní Léighneacháin sin óna mháthair-mhór Bean Ui Léighneachain, (77), Dúna, Baile Cruaich
