    “Féasta a bhí ar an sleadtán mór”

    "Féasta a bhí ar an sleadtán mór
    Agus deir go leór gur mhair sé seachtmhain
    Guineas rinneadh súas den ceól
    Cúig phunt as coróin do fúair an sagairt
    Bhí bíadh gus deoch don mbeag is don mór,
    Is gan glaodach na tóir ar cotaí breaca
    Acht lucht cnocuigh árda bonnets,
    béalers, centons, caimbris, is gunaí geala.
    Éadaighe clár a's buird dá réir sin
    Ina dhíaid a chéile bhí síad leagtha.
    Míasaí geala ar plátaí peatúir
    Agus sgeanna géara le dul ag gearradh
