    Chuaidh mé 'na rosaibh ar chuairt
    gur bhreathnuigh mé uam an spéir
    amach síos fa na h-oilein ó thuaidh
    mar eileit agus cú na diaidh
    II
    Casadh damh cailín deas óg
    'S ma casadh 'sí labhair go géar
    'Cén áit seo 'a mbíonn uí do chomhnuidh
    Nó 'n gcoinnigheann tú cró duit féin?

    Ó, bíomsa seal i dtig 'n óil
    'gus ní dheánam a'n lón den phighinn
    Ach an mhéid adaí shaoiruighim sa ló
    A chaitheadh le spóirt na h-oidhche
    IV
    Mas duine iú ' leanas den ól
    Ní mhiolasm ro mhóir de thrade
    Sé bhreathnuighim go bhfuil tú ro óg
    le do cheangal do chéile go fóill
    V

    Ar maidin indé gan bróg
    Chán féidir gir tusa 'n fear óg
    A bhfuil siad sa tóir na dhiaidh
