    (Sean-aintín de Eibhlís bhean Uí Bhruadar a cheap an caoinead
    seo dá fear. Thit sé de thrucaill in l-óchaill agus
    marbuigheadh ar an áit sin é. Deirtear gur d’ól sí a
    chuid fola nó roinnt de.)
    I
    Mo chreach geár-fhada is mo chreach
    Nuair a raghadh-sa go bun an lána amach
    Tabhairfidh mé liom tú isteach
    Agus cóireochaidh mé tú go deas
    Cuirfidh mé do dhá leanbh le t-ais
    Feichaint an gcuirfeá an t-allus ceart
    ‘S go dtiocfá aríst thar nais. A bráthairín ó.
    II
    Mo chreach geár fhada, m’aith tuirse ingeanach
    Agus dá dtiocfadh na daoine mar a thagann na síolta
    Chuirfinn-se aiteann ort ar aoileach
    Agus trioscar meon ón dtaide.
    Ingrádh tú bheith taobh liom sínte. A bráthairín ó.
