    (continued from previous page)
    Bhí sgilling agus punta ar an g gan pheice mine,
    Is thug mé sin a's tuilleadh do mo chailín ruadh.

    Choirigh mise an barraille i lár a bhaile (na sráíde)
    Is bhí siad ag cruinniú aníos is anuas.
    Bhi muid ag óil gur éirigh an ghealach,
    Agus d'fhág sí mise mo chailin ruadh.

    Éan bocht scoithte mé le fada o chaill mé mo cul bharra,
    Teach fárois no caraid níl romham ar na beallaigh.
    Chá truagh le neach mar atá mé,
    Ach mo sé éág mo charaid a sheoil me 'un seachráín,
    Is d'fhag me scoithte mar ta mé.
    A Rí! atá ar neamh lughadh tú sgamaill,
    Is go seolfaidh tú thar béal tragha mé.

    Mar éan ar an chraobh na seabhach ach chlaoidhe,
    A bíos mo chroidhe-se gan amhras.
    Mo (racht) le gaoith a shiubhalfeadh an saoghal
    Is beirfeadh scríobh is gleann léithe.
