    Is go bhfuil sé fágtha ansin acu, 's gan
    rud ar bit ar áit,
    'S a gcuimnigeann sib sé cailíní an lá fadó
    a bí mé tinn.
    'S gurb é dubairt sagairt 's doctúirí gur
    le aire tiocfainn tríd,
    Ach d'eirigh mé in adiaid sin 's cuaid mé
    ag obair ar an scrín
    Nó go bfuair mé sgéal ó Congaile
    suibalfad sé le Brígid,
    Is niorbh é sin féid a marbuig mé nó
    go deo deo bris mo croide,
    Ach beic ag suibal na boirrí fada
    'S iad ag siósgad le mo croide.
