  1. (continued from previous page)
    When the galley was upset
    It was dreadful to deplore
    The cry of women and children
    That day upon the shore
    Mrs Scanlon you would pity her
    And all the others too
    Saying "Now our husbands are gone from us
    And alas what will we do."
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
  2. Seo chugainn é thríd an t-sáile gorm
    Péileacán na Gréine
    Fear a cóta gorm
    Agus snáthad dearg tré'n a léine. (gliomach)
    Tháinig éan gan cleite agus luigh sí fá bhun sgeilpe
    Tháinig éan gan béal agus sluigh sí an t-éan gan cleite.
    (leach oidhre fá scalp agus an ghrían)
