    Smaointeadh ar mo stoirín
    A bíodh i gcomnaidhe cainnt orm.
    ‘Snach truagh libh mar seoladh mé
    Go hóg a deanamh m’aimhleas
    III
    Pósadh mé go hóg
    Mar gheall ar na punntai.
    Lán mo dhá láimh
    Níor shásaidh sé riam m’inntin
    Is truagh nach dtug se d’acht amach
    Mar thig ar buaibh ‘sar caoirigh
    An té nach dtaitineocadh a margadh leis
    A seoladh aris un aonaigh.

    Eán bocht sgaitte.
    Is mé le fada
    O’ chaill mé mo cúl báire
    Níl tigh mo caradh
    Ins an tir seo na in m’aice.
    ‘S ní truagh le neach mé cráidte
    II
    Sé eag mo charad
    A sheol mé an bealach
    Sa dfhág me annso le ráithe
    Sa Rí ta i dTeamhair
    Go luathaidh tú an tSamhain
