    Mo mhallacht go na corrachaí
    Is mo mhallact go na báid
    Mo mhallacht go na corracaí atá
    thall ins an tráigh bháin
    Siad a bhain mo cheathar dearbrathair díom
    a raibh feilim aca ann.
    Is nach cuma leis an gCealach
    mar is é atá istigh ina náit.

    Báitheadh Tom is Peadar, is bhí eara mhór ina ndhiaidh.
    Is dearbráthair eile Mairtín a báitheadh, fadó ariamh.
    Is Michil bocht ba mheasa liom,
    Ná a bhfaca tú ariamh.
    Is mo mhallacht gun toin bháidhthe,
    Is í a dfága mo cheann liath.

    Thorraí dhíbhse a dearbhrathaireacaí,
    nach dtagann sibh i dtír.
    Seacas a bheith ga mucáil idir fairraigí,
    is gá gcuir ó thaobh go taobh.
    Mar chaonfhadh sean-mhná an bhaile sibh
    I gcleamhnas is i ngaol.
    Is go gcuirfhidh connradh gheal orraibh,
    amach ó láimh an t-saoir.
