  1. Béarfaidh mé an ruaig go h-Innis Céidhe ar chuairt,
    Is fágfaidh mé iad gan gruam na saoí,
    Osna bhocht ná cruaidh ná éagcaoin as seo suas,
    Ní chluinfidh mé gan buan mo laéthe in aimsir bhaint an lín 'gus na h-eórna glas i gcraobh,
    Aithreas ins gach nídh dá ndearna bean ariamh,
    Is nach truagh sin is mé go dtí san bhfóghmhar,
    Na dheas an fear é ar tuaith
    A moladh is thabhairt suas is a Dhómhnaill óg na lucht é d' sgaoileadh
    Nach í an fhairrge seo thiar an roilig bhreágh bhréagh gan phian
    Peacach innte riamh níor báitheadh
    Nach aoibhinn sin is é fíor
    An t-anam geal ag Dia is Micheál gan aon phian i bparthas.
