  1. Gabhfaidh mé chun Aifrinn Amáireach

    Share Share Post
    Gabfaidh mé 'um Aifrinn amaíreach
    Go bfeicfidh mé grád mo chroidhe
    Agus innseócaid mé igcogar da máitrín
    Go ndeacaidh a grád in mo chroidhe

    Nach sin í sa bpobal mo grádhsa
    Agus cá bfuil an bhean breágh le na taobh
    Le finne, le gile is le breághaicte
    Is go seasfad sí os comair an Rí

    Bionn a cuid éilíní ag gaíre
    Ag tabhairt deallradh trí lár an tíghe
    Agus bá ghile liom crúdh a da láimh
    Na an sneactha do carnad i gcraoibh

    Mas rud nach bhfuil sí le fághail agam
    Agus nach mbéidh go brátach faraor
    Sgaoilimse an súgrad le fánaidh
    Agus beannacht le grádh mná an t-Saoghail

    Deanfaidh me cuilt (?) do mo brishde
    A mairfeas le saogal na bfear
    Ní bhainfid me an fheásóg seo díom
    Da bfasad sé mile ar fad
