  1. An Siota agus A Mháthair

    Share Share Post
    Bean a' Tighe
    Do ghabh chugaim cúpla ar dtús na h-oidhche
    Go tuirseach túirseach ó shiubhal na tíre
    Ag iarraidh déirce is ag éileamh cabhartha
    'S ag guidhe chun Dé ar son gach aon dá thiubhradh
    Bean bheag criosanta, brosanta, bláthmhar
    'S a mac 'na siota 'na ceanndán dána
    An chailleach go fáidheamhail, bardamhail, bréagach
    Fiosrach, fáilteamhail, fáthamhail, fabhrach
    An siota go stuacach, buacach, brónach
    Faoi doicheall, faoi ghruaim gur luaidh sé a dhóthain
    Suideas féin síos is níor dhubhairt aon rud
    Agus leigeas mo shuil go dlúth ar a chéile
    Rinneas gáire agus sháigheas faoi chéile iad
