    Is ró-mhaith a aithnighimse eadar an dubh agus an bán
    Agus ní hí an bhean is áluinne is troime ciall
    Ach ná saoil gur duitse atá mé dá rádh seo
    A Ainnir álainn is finne giall.
    Níl a'n áit ó seo go híochtar Fhánnaid
    Nach bhfuil mé in grádh le cailín óg
    Bean ins na Rosaibh agus Leitir Mhic a Bhaird
    Ó'n Mhucais go dtí an Mullach Mór.
    Dís na mBaoghlach agus dís na mBáineach
    Bean in Fhearthainn agus chois Ghaoth Dobhair
    Bean I Leitir Ceanainn agus arais ar mhullach Gháigín
    Agus ó sin go Cuirrín Mhághnuis ar thaobh an róid.
    Bímse 'mo bhuachaill spéireamhail i dteach an óil.
    Seal ag pleidhiúsa le mná ar aontaighibh
    Seal ag bréagú na gcailíní og.
