    D'éirigh mise ar maidin ag adhanc ar an áirnéis,
    Is ag dul siar an bogach dhom cé casadh acht an bás liom,
    Mar gheárrfadh sé chuile aith-ghiorra anuas o shliabh is ó árdán,
    "Gluais ort, a sheáin agus bí liom.
    II
    Meas mé dul chun bladair leis,
    Mar bhí fhios agam go raibh se láidir,
    Is minic a rinneadh catharanas cairid mhaith de'n namaid,
    "Sgaoilimse mo bheannacht leat gan peaca agus fág mé,
    Níl Máire sásta sgaramhaint liom go dtigidh ins na páiste,
    Dár bhrígh sin leig domsa go fóil."
