    Grádh mo croidhe le m'anam thú
    Seachas a bhfuil beo
    Is tú a sabháil mo anam dom.
    Lá a dtáinigh mór
    Bhí dhá cúrsaí ceangailte agam
    Is barróg ar mo sheól
    Is níor sgór mé le Ceann Gúlam
    Go dtáinig me isteach sa ródh.

    Mo grádh í Maire Ní Gríoba.
    Sí an ribhean thar na mná
    Ní thug sí ariamh an gloinne dhom
    Acht an buidéal is é lán
    Is nuair shílfhinn a dul dá n-íoch leithe
    Ní dhéanfeadh sí diom ach greann
    Is ní sgarfad om ghrádh go bráth leat
    Go dtí an Geimhreadh taréis mo bháis.

    Is iomdha maidin Domhnach
    Is mé sugach deas go leór
    Ag dul síos le mo loitin móna
    Is do chursa i m sheól mór
    Níor gheill mé ariamh ar muir ar bith
    Do ghála na do ceó
    No go dtéigheann ag caint le blúr na mbán
