    Eoghan Cóir.
    (fonn:- fir an Iarthair)

    I
    Tá Andrias Ó Gubháin a' caoineeadh,
    Is ní bheidh Ó Buidhe i bhfad beo.
    Ó cailleadh a charaid sa tír seo.
    Mo chreach is mo mhíle brón.
    An tearmuin carthach níor síneadh,
    le fad an phóilidhe ná dhó,
    An géinneach * ba mheasa sa tír seo
    Ná an Duine bocht maol Eoghan Cóir

    II

    Éirigh is cuir ort do chuid éadaigh,
    Cíorfa mé féin do chul,
    Rachainn go Flaithmeamnas Dé leat,
    Dhá mb'fhéidir liom féin a'dul ann.
    Tá grádh agus cion agam péin ort,
    Is a chuid an tSaoghail éaluigh liom,
    Mara bhfághmuinn-ne pósadh i nÉirinn,
    Ach rachaí le chéile anonn.
