    Bhí sí go lúthair i bpannc seal
    Le girrfiadh ag bun sléibhe ná ag bárr
    Go dtainic Éamonn Ó Dubáin as Toraigh
    Is gur amharc sé ar a cab sa chárn
    D'amharc sé uirthi siar fan leat deiridh
    Is d'éirigh sí na seasamh i léim
    Sráid Gort an Coirce gur ghlan sí
    'S bhí a cuid fhéin de'n mhargadh léi
    Beir sceala uaim siar cun na Rosan
    Ionnsair an Dalac dar bainm do Aodh
    Gur éaloigh an crúbach as Toraigh,
    'S go deachaidh sí 'nonn ar an Ghaoth
    A samhailt ní rabh ins an tsaogal seo
    A's ní fhactas ariamh go fóill
    'Gus 'sé chluinim ar maidin Dia hAoine
    Gur bhuail sí an cladach faoi sheól
    Maise, ' Éamonn Uí Dhubaigh i dToraigh
    Dar mo chúise, níor mhaith liom do bhó
    Ná ba tusa an fear cliuteach i mbaile
    Ba subhach a bhí seal i dtigh an óil
    Dá mairfeadh an chrúbach i d'aice
    Béadh lúdair go farsaing le moin,
    Is mór bh'fheárr léithe siubhal ar an talamh
    Ná imtheacht amach go tír mór
