    Amhrán na Tráighe Báine
    Mo mhíle slán le Éirinn is breágh an rud é an t-Earrach féin
    Ní bhíodh cainnt ar obair bosannaí ná rud ar bith mar é.
    Seal ag tarraingt fheamainne cur fataí is ag baint fhéir,
    Is ní raibh fear ar bith dhá bhoichte nach raibh feilm aige féin.
    Mo bheannacht leis an teach úd na mbíodh an t-aos óg cruinn,
    A mbíodh mo cheathrar dreabhthar ann ag déanamh greann is spraoi.
    A Ḋhia nach bocht an cás dom é gan a fhághail filleadh choidhche
    Sin dfág m-intinn buadhartha is an ghruaig ag tuitim díom.
    Nuair a bhí teach agamsa farior níor fhan mé ann,
    Anois atá sé sgaipthe uaim gan blas ar bith dhá bhárr.
    An fear a coinneóchadh ceart dom é céad farior fuair sé bás,
    Ach a dhreabhthair ó mo bheannacht leat do chliabhain atá in t-áit.
