  1. Amhráin - Fáinne Geal an Lae

    Share Share Post
    Maidin go moch do ghabhas amach ar bruach Loch Léin,
    Bhí an Samradh i tigheacht an craobh le n-ais is lonnradh té ón ngréin.
    Ar thaistil dhom trí Bhailte port is bannta Mí na réidce gabhainn le n-ais.
    Acht cuílín deas le fáinne geal an Lae
    *
    Ní raibh bróg na stocai, caipín ná cloaca
    ar mo stóirín óg ón spéir acht a folt.
    Finnórdha síos go tráig le foscadh bárr an fhéir.
    Bhí gaillin clúidthe aice ina glaic.
    Is ar ucht bárr deas í sgéal ó do, thug bárr
    Déan an béamhnas deas le fáinne geal an lae.

    *
    Do shuidh an ógbhean síos le h-ais an binnses glás de'n fhéir.
    Is bhí mé ag comhradh léithe ar mnaoi ná sgarann léi.
    Sé dubhairt sí liom ná bhris mo clú.
    Is scaoil mé feasta réidór a mhaoidh de
    ná neas tá na soillse le teacht
    le fáinne geal an Lae.
