Nuair d’éirigh an ghrian suas go h-árd,
Fá choim lár a’ lae,
Bhí na céadtaí fear go h-íseal,
Agus iad faoi bhreitheamh dé.
Bhí namhaid dá la gdughadh,
Is iad ag tuitim ar gcúl,
Fir na h-Éireann le claidhmh theacha,
Teacht anuas ortha go cruaidh.

Rith an lae in a chában,
Ba chruaidh bhí Brian á guidhe,
Clann na nGaedheal buaidh fhághail,
‘S gan a chúrum a ghábhail ‘un scaoith.
Ghuid seisean Rí na nDúl,
A Mhathair Naomhtha mar ba chóir,
Iad smocht a fhághail ar a námhaid,
Is a dtionnéódh as Éire go deo.

Nuair a bhí sé a d’éirigh dorcha,
Is an ghrian ag tuitim sios,
Bhí námhaid scaptha ar frid an tír?
‘S gan conntú morán brígh.
Casadh brúdar ar a’ chabán,
Mo bhrón ‘s mo mhíle truagh,
Thug sé do Bhrian an Buille Fealltach.(continues on next page)
