    Amhrann fa Aodh Ruadh Ó’Domhnaill.
    “Ó trialluigh’ liom ar bhord mó luinge”,
    Arsan caiptín béalbhinn breugach.
    “Tá ár dtéad go teann, faoi bhruach na mbeann
    Ar ucht Loch Súilighe chéimeach.
    Tá a broinn lión lán de fhíon na spáin
    Ceud ogsaod mhór ‘gus tuilleadh
    Díghe ‘s measamhla i gcúirt a rígh
    Beóir chroidheamhail, chaoin, gan mhilleadh.
    ‘Gus ólfamuid an íocsláinte
    As corn oír araon
    A’s bhéidh againn tamall cuideachta
    Nach gcosd’ an duitse píghin”
    Táitnigh cómhrádh ‘n bhitheamhnaigh
    Go h-annsach le h-aodh Ruadh
    ‘S ar bhórd na luinge chuaidh sé mach
    Mó bhrón mó mhíle thruaigh’.
