    Faraor géar nár cailleadh mé
    An lá baisteadh mé go h-óg
    Lá'r fághad minghean aonric mé
    Gan feithide an bhéil bheo
    Níl driotháir agam
    'S níl deirbrur agam
    'S níl mo matair beo
    Ac m'atair bhoct lag luabach
    'Sa Dia cé h-iongantas dhó.

    Mo mallacht do na curracha
    'S mo beannacht do na báid
    Go mór mhór do na curracha
    Tá istigh ins an tráigh báin
    Siad a báith mo ceatar driotaireaca
    A raibh feilm acú ann,
    Nura dibhse a cheathar driotháireacha
    Nach dtagann isteach ar dtír.
