Seanamhrán Gaeilge
“Fágail geafhtaí Dhoire dúinn”
Sean amhran Gaedhilge.
Fágail geafhtaí Dhoire dúinn
Is linne bhí an chóir
Bhí an ghaoth teacht anoir orainn
Agus an fhairrge bhí mór
Casadh fódaí mire dúinn
Mo chreach a’s mo chrá
Siad d’fhág ar an Charraic Fhada sinn
Ag bab an mhulaigh mhóir.

Déirigh Eoghan Mac Néill na sheasamh
Na sheasamh ins an loing
Deirfea gurbh é an malé é
Na an captaoin a bhí os ar gcionn.
Scairt sé linn faithcheilt a thabhairt
Ar an dóigh a dtainic an tonn
Tabhair a theith arais ó’n bharra
A’s béidh an chóir ar chál ar gcinn.
III
D’éirigh muid go luath, luath.
Agus ghluais muid go mall
Thóg muid ar seoltaí
Is faraor ní theachaidh linn
Ag gabhail suas ag an Charraic Fhada
Thainic briseadh ar an long
Nuair a scairt na coiligh ‘réir
Rinneadh céad cuid den loing.(continues on next page)
