  1. Amhrán faoin Stiléireacht

    Is moch ar maidin a thainic chugam, cois íseal

    Amhran Fa’n “Stillearacht”.
    Is moch ar maidin a thainic chugam, cois íseal
    An bhuachaill sgaoilte bhí leicthe lúthmhar
    “Tá’n t-arm dearg ar fud na tíre
    Ma tá dadaí sgaoilte bí da cheangal suas
    II
    Tá dhá shac bratha agam ‘s na stangaí líonta
    Agus teine shíos le na rachaidh ‘nuas
    Thainic a’ bhórach bhradach thart, mo mhallacht síorraidh.
    Thug sí an trainín díleas agus an [worm]? uam.
    III
    Is moch ar maidin bhí mo inntin tréalaidh
    A’s m’ aigneadh aerach ag dul le gaoth
    Da brigh mo mháighe níl gar damh a shéanadh
    Tá cúmhaidh na diaidh orm ó dimthigh sí.
    IV
    Tá bearrach deas agam nach mblaisfeadh feóirín
    ‘S nach n-íosfadh dórnan den choirce bhán
    ‘S mar bhfuigheadh sí ach baraille de scoith na h-eorna
    Go mblighfeadh sí stópa den bhainne a bh’fheárr
    V
    Ba mhaith í féin agus ba mhór a bainne
    San am a ndeánadh sinn an t-eadradh mór
    Go rabh ceig deich n-galún aicí agus deich gcárta
    De chlimirt shásta gan cic a thabhairt.
    VI
    Da bhfagainnse shack ar bith in aice ‘n tsléibhe
