    An Buachaill Bán
    ----------------
    Thug mé ruaide go mullach na cruaiche
    Is an dara ruaidhe un an t-sleibhe Ruaidh
    A dh'iarraidh an cailín d'fág m'intinn
    buadhartha
    Cuirim leán is ruaig uirtí mar geall
    ar mnaoi.

    Chrup mó glúnaibh go dtí mo glúnaibh
    Is fuair mé fogra glan gear
    on bás
    'S níl an dune dar gcualaidh mó
    scéal an lá sin
    Nar dhubhairt gur thruagh bhocht
    an buachall bán.

    A chailín iomaraigh da gcroigfidh
    mhoin duit
    I gcionn an foghmhair ní chuirinn
    suim
    Tús na h-oige dioghbhail comhairle
    Postar rud'sna bhí liom.

    Gach uile cearn a bhfuil stór mo croidhe
