- Is olc an cú na fuin fead.
As doiligh olainn a bhaint de gabhar
Cheannuigh saor rud as bíodh gan aon rud
Cam direach an ród sé an bealach mór an aithghiorra
Is glas na chnuic i bhfad uainn
Is féarr éan sa dorn no beirt sa toin
Bíonn ceann dubh ar gach maidin earraigh
Is minic a bhíos cú mhall sona
Ritheann uisge domhain go ciun
Is féarr go mall no go brath
Tuigheann fear leighinn leath-fhocal
An té bhíos amuigh fuareann a cuid
Is furast fuinneadh i naice na mine
Ní é lá na gaotha lá na scoilb
Is olc an gaoth na séidean mait do dhuine éiginnteacht
An té bhíos amuigh fuareann a cuid
An té bhíos dá dhóghadh b’féarr leis do bhathad
Is maith an sgéaluidhe an aimsear
Sé airgead na n-oinseach chuireas bróga ar bhean phíobaire
Briseann an duthchas tríd sula ‘n chait
In áit a mbíonn mná bíonn geab
Castar daoine ar a chéile ach ní castar na chnuic(continues on next page)
