    Sean Amhrán Gaedhilge - An Droch Shaoghal
    I
    A Rí mór na páirte
    goide dheánfas na daoine,
    Gan maoiseog mhaith phréataí
    Go Féil Padruic nó na dhiaidh
    II
    Ní bhfuigh sinn min cháirde
    'S tá'r stát uilig réidh
    'S mar bhfóirig orainn an bhainríoghain
    Tá'n bás ag clann na ngaedheal
    III
    Tá sean daoine na tíre seo
    Go fíor ar dhroch dhóigh
    Gan tobaca acu nó píopaí
    Nó pighinn in a ndórn
    IV
    Dá dtigeadh Mac atSaoir
    'S iad a shíneadh faoi'n fhóid
    Cluinfeadh an saogal mór
    Na daoine ag gabhail ceol.
    V
    Tá páisdí bochta ag caoineadh
    'S gan fios acu caidé'n fath
    Níl ciall ag na h-uaisle
    Caide mar tá ar g-cradh
