    “Blián mhór sa taca seo”

    Blían mhór sa taca seo
    Ba mhaith mó culaith eadaigh
    ba luthgaire, eadtrom aige-antach
    A dheanfainn bean a Chréagadh
    Do phós mé an giobach bhocht mar
    gheall ar cupla bhó ar spré leí
    As d'fhag sí ar an anas me
    Is mó chraiceann geal gan beine (?)

    (II)
    Ma bhí sábhailte sa culaith éadaigh
    B'feidir nar leat fhein í
    Ní raibh sí ar do croiceann
    Go raibh fear an t-sipa (?) ag éileamh
    Dhíol mé mó cuid bó, ag
    Réidhtiughadh do cuid fiacha
    dá mbeadh sin oiread eile agam
