    “Pós a chailín thall (sul) a dtighthi (dtiocfaidh) an aois”

    Pós a chailín thall (sul) a dtighthi (dtiocfaidh) an aois
    Ní deanann an óige feadh cómh a coichdhe
    Ní fhásann aon duille ar a chrann o críonín
    Is ní beidh do clann agat i n-am do caonte .

    Geall tú dom go dtiubrad abhaile mé
    Billí óir is billí airgid.
    Tighthe móra is baile margaidh
    Agus caisleán móra a' taoibh na fairrge.

    Ná fada bhí mise idir dá doras na gaoithe
    Mo dhá láim fosgailte is mo bhrollach sgaoilte
    Dúil go bfeicinn mo grádh gá síosal
    A dul an margaidh nó teacht ón aonach.

    Geall tú dom-sa agus dúbhairt tú bréag.
    Go mbeithea rómain i gcró na gcaorach
    Leig mé fead is dhá mhíle béic ort
    is ní bfúair mé ugam ach na h-uain ag méilig.
