    Tally heigh-ho san gleó
    Agus cuirfead an tóir id thimcheall
    Madra Rua :- Ise Sheáin nár bhaindheas an cúrsa
    Dá gcuifinn gan soup mo mhuinntir
    Nuair do fuaireas do dhoirisín romham
    Gan boltha, gan lúib, gan innse
    A dhuine, bídh réidh go fóil
    Nár inniseas an scoil duit roimh seo
    Nár mealladh fá dhó mo shórt
    Go dtiocfadh an tóir ad thimpeall.
    Sheán :- Nár chloisir-se an cuach led ló
    Nár chloisir go deó ná'n tradhnach
    Nár chloisir na gadhair lá an ghleó Go dtiocfaidh an tóir id thimpeall
    Tally heigh-ho, heigh-ho
    Tally heigh-ho le Reynard
    Tally heigh-ho san gleó
    Agus cuirfead an tóir id thimcheall
    Nár bhé sin an spórt 's an gleó
    Ah imeacht le fórsa i d'dhiaidh-se
    Agus teinnte cnámh dá ndóigh
    Nuair bheadh ar sgórnaigh greim ort
    Tally heigh-ho, heigh-ho
