    Fuadach Aoidh Ruaidh.
    “Ó triallaigh liom ar bhórd mo luinge”,
    Ars’ an captaoin béal-bhinn, bréagach;
    “Tá ar dtéad go teann faoi bhruach na mbeann,
    Ar ucht loch Súilighe céimeach”.
    “Tá a broinnlín lán de fhíon na Spáinn’,
    Céad usaid mhór a’s tuilleadh,
    De’n dígh is (fearr) measamhla i gcúirt an Ríogh,
    Beóir chroidheamhail, chaoin gan milleadh.
    “’Gus ólfamuid an íoc - shláinte,
    As an chorn óir araon;
    A’s béidh againn tamall cuideachta,
    Nach gcosnuigheann duit - se pighinn”.
    Thaitinn comhrádh an bhitheamhnaigh,
    Go h-annsach le Aodh Ruadh;
    ‘S ar bhórd na luinge chuaidh sé ‘mach,
    Mo bhrón ‘s mo mhíle truagh.
