    Ballaí fuara a gníos bean tighe suarac
    Chonnaic me ceana tú mar dubairt an cath leis an mbainne bruite
    Geobfhaidh na ba bás an fhaid is bheidhis an féar ag fás
    Más cam díreach an ród sí an t-slighe mór an aithgiorra
    Is feárr súil le muir ná súil le uair
    Is lúth ná frith máthair an droc-ádhbar
    Is iomda leanbh maith a bainead as a cleactadh
    Is furasta fuil a bhaint as cúl cathrac
    Sioc tús oidhche dhiol Fionn a bhróga
    sioc deireadh oidche thiubhrad sé dá péire buan
    Is iomda lá sa gcill orainn
    Is beó cailleac gan iasg act ní beo í gan arán
    Tosac maith leath na h-oibre
    Cé nac ngabann comhairle gabhann sé leis an gcomluadar
    Is teann madad indoras a thighe féin
