    A Bhuachaillín Óig a shuibhaileas a ród
    Tóghaidh tusa an t-séoid a bheas agat mar innaoi
    Na sanntuigh de deor maoin caiple na bó
    Go n-innsighe mé'n dóigh duit a dtógfaidh tú í
    Bhíodh sí laghach óg gan mherig gan brón
    Bíodh sí stuamdha go leor ar an Dighe? uile seort
    Bíodh sí aigeantach ró dheas gan iomata? stró
    'Snach? íseal mó stór agus bíodh sí gan pighinn
    II
    Tá Cailín deas óg mo dhiaidh ins a ród
    Mo chreach 's mo bhrón nar casadh damh í
    Rachfadh sí dhíol liom un damhsa 's 'un spóirt
    'S Suibhailfeadh sí'n ród liom ar uair a mheadhon-oidche
    Is gile go mór í nó'n ule's ?na rós
    Tá deallramh de'n ó ar fad 'na dlaoi
    A gcastaidhe mo stór damh agus í bheith gan phósadh
    Condae Mhuigheó 's ní sgarfadh uaim í
    III
    Tá fios ag an tsaoghail go bpósfainn mo inhian?
    Ar neamh-chead mo dhaoiní's a maireann
