    Agus aodhairí go leór
    Trena chu ag teacht le guadach Cóíste Breacha (?) fútha
    Is iad uilig ag fiafruighe "Cá bhfuil Béal Trághadh."

    An Chailleach a bhí seacht mbliadhain
    Sinte ar a leirit
    D'éírigh sí aniar
    Ag dul go "Béal Traghadh."
    Nuair a thoisigh sí ag cainnt ní raibh fiacal in a ceann
    Agus bhí sí chomh dall le "Owl" Chaochan.

    (VI)

    Ag déunamh spóirt,
    Ag onc ar an leithead
    A bhí in a lár.
    Dá mbeadh braoinín a chuid sugha le cur ar mo ghlún
    Bheadh mé chomh súgach le bean ar bith san áit.
