Amhrán (continued)
“Thall i mbruach an tSleibhe”
(continued from previous page)Ar shiubhal ag cruinniughadh déirce
Béidh leabacha cluimh - éan againn
In éadan ar dtoigh.

Arsa an mhathair leis an ingean.
An rud ba doiligh liom a radh leat
‘Se measam ar an lása
Gur chaill tú do chiall.
Acht mas nidh é caithfis a bheit deanta
‘S gan gar dúinn a bhéith trácht air
Cuir rópa fa na lar air
‘S bí da hálal do diaidh.

“Nuair a bhí mise óg”

Nuair a bhí mise óg
Bhí mé laghach áluinn
Bhí mé in innimh dul ‘un cainnte.

Anois ó tá mé pósta.

Mo mhallacht ar an lá sin
A rinn mé dith-na-céille.

Sior deanam lin-dubh.
Ó maidin go tráthnóna(continues on next page)
