    Cuirfhímíd talamh go tréun,
    ‘Gur béid biotáilte’ ‘gainn féin ar sáith

    Mairbhfidh muid *ballan go fóill,
    Agus corra go leor ar an traigh.
    Béidh againn fataí agus móin,
    Agas bainne na mbó le n-ól
    Stadfaid mé feasta de mo bhrón
    ‘Gur glacfaidh mé dóigh níos fearr,
    Ní fhágfaidh mé Mucros go bráth
    Go gcuirfidh mé feoil ar mo chnaimh.
    *ballan A kind of fish caught along the Donegal coast.
