    Acht a Athair a bhíodh chomh fada i gcoláiste
    Ar chuala tú ariamh é an oiread cainnte faoí cabáiste.

    There was a marriage in a village. The food they had for the guests was herrings instead of meat. Rafftery composed a poem about it.
    Banais a bhí ar an Cliagán Mór
    Deirtear gur mhair sé seachtmhain,
    Gíne óir a rinne suas chun ceoil,
    Agus cuig punt coróin a bhfuair an sagart.
    Bhí sin an cuinú mór, fir go leor agus mná deasa.
    Is fear gan croidhe nach lánfar dóibh
    Ba geal gan " seó " ag dul tríd baile
