    Ní duine saoghalta mé ná geilt,
    Acht anam bocht atá i bpian.
    Ceist arís agam ort, in ainm Íosa,
    Acht gan tú dochar a dheánamh damh,
    Cá h-fhad ó d'fhág tú an saoghal
    Nó annsin atá tú ó shoin?
    Fiche bliadhain go Domhnach s'chuaidh thart,
    Ó scar mise leis an cholainn chlaoin,
    A's tá mé mar tchí tú mé ó shoin
    M'aghaidh ar ghaoith agus ar fhearthainn.
    Is doiligh liom sin a chreidbheail uait,
    Cé go bhfeicim thú 'do chabhail chaithte,
    Go rabh an anam ariamh a d'fhág an saoghal,
    Fiche bliadhain gan a dhul 'na fhlaithis
