    * (2) A Dhia, go moltar a choidhche,
    Do thoil a thug mise ‘un siubhail.
    A’s d’fhág mé gan suaimhneas na hoidhche
    Mo dheoraidhe gan amharc na súil.
    (4) A’s annsin a bá mhaith liom mo bheatha
    A chathadh i ngleann seo na ndeor.
    A’s ní iarrfainn de sháidhbhreas a choidhche
    Ach aon phóg amháin ó mo stóir.
    Tá sé cheathramhadh dhéag anns na Rosa,
    Agus sé mhíle dhéag ar gach taoibh;
    Tá sléibhte agus gleanntain Thír Chonaill,
    Mar ghárda ar Rosa na Naomh.
    Tá teanga bhinn uasal ar sinnsear
    Faoi mheas a’s faoi bláth ann go fóill,
    As guth binn na gceoltar le cluinstin
    Sna bádaí ar an bháige faoi sheol.
    Slán leat, a thír bhreagh na Rosa
    Do shléibhte, a’s do ghleanntain go fíor.
