    Caoineadh ar bhás Mhichil Bhreathnaigh
    (I)
    Is dubhach an sgeal 'gainn
    Indiu i nÉirinn
    Is tú a mhúirnín
    Id' luighe fao'n bhfód
    A chroidhe ba Ghaedhealaighe
    A croidhe ba séimhe
    A mhaoin mo chléibhe
    Is a mhíle stór

    (II)
    Ar cruach Loch Measga
    Ní cloisfear feasta
    An guth ba chneasta
    Is ba bhinne glór
    'S a Dhia nach mairg é
    An taoiseach gheanamhail
    Na luighe chois fhairrge
    Mo bhrón, mo brón

    (III)
    Cé dubh ár smaointe
    Ar do thuamba sínte
    'Sé rún ar gcroidhe dhuit
    Gach uair sa ló
    I dtír na saoirre
    Go bheictear choidhche
    Ar deis laimh Íosa
