  1. Amhráin (continued)

    When sweet Kelly's ert when the Phoenix were dawning

    (continued from previous page)
    To sweet little "Hazy" and Peggy Malone,
    Those beautiful creatures, the pride of all nature,
    Down from the mountains they're nane to behold.

    They can draw with their needles the Map of old Erin,
    The Garden of Eden, the Temple of Rome,
    The ship in full sail and she ploughing the ocean
    The fox in full chase, and the goose at his door

  2. Amhráin

    Bhí mise la bréagh Samhraidh ag teacht amach as Clár

    Seo amhrán a chuala mé ó mo shean-athair, Micheál Ó Lorcain. Tá sé in a chomhnuidhe i mBreaclaigh, i mBéal na mBó agus é 87 bl. d'aois.
    Bhí mise lá breágh Samhráidh ag teacht aniar as Clár,
    Cé bhuailfeadh liomsa ar an ród acht bean an tSeainínín
    'Gus í gléasta i muslins go leór.
    An é tusa bean an tSeaininín
    Sé mo chreach, mo chrádh, brón ar mo mháthairín,
    Sí pós mé le 'jumpereen' i ngeall ar chúpla bó.
