  1. Buachailleacht bo mo ceo nior cleacht mise riamh
    Ach is ag imirt is ag ol le hog mra deasa fa shliabh
    Nior chaill me mo stor ni doghach gur chaill me mo chiall
    Is ni mo (goin) do broga na broga ta a caitheamh le bliadhain
    Nuair a teidh mise sios bionn mile failte romham
    Is nuair a tigim anios bionn mo chroidhe istigh lan de'n bhron
    Ach tuirse mo chroidhe ar an te bhain damhsa mo stor
    'S d'fhag mise liom fein gach la ag sileadh na ndeor
    Rachaidh me fein deanamh ceanna fa'n ghleann
    Gan coite gan gleas gan aon ghrainin braithe le cur ann
    Ach duilleabhar na gcraobh mar eideadh leabtha os mo chionn
    A sheacht nanam deag thu feach chugam is bi liom.
