  1. Le Cumha i ndiaidh Mary

    Share Share Post
    Dul aníos dhom ó Bhéal Ghleann' Aoibhinn
    Mar is ar mo chroidhe istigh nach raibh aon mhairg
    Shuidh mé síos ar thulán cíbe
    Agus Rinneas smaoineadh ar dhul abhaile
    Dhearc mé chugam tríd an Ród í
    'Sí an ealann óg í tá sa mbaile Raithnighe
    Gheit mo chroidhe istigh agus shil mé deóra
    Le cumha indiaidh "Mary" 'tá mo dhiaidh sa mbaile
    Bheirim mo mhallact do na "peelers"
    a shíl mé dhíbirt abhfad ó bhaile
    Mar bhí ceathar aca 'gam mo dhaora
    Is mé idir speile istigh ar bhara
    Nuair labhair an breitheamh de chómhrádh mánla
    Ó tá naoi mí ort i bpríosún Ghaillimh
    Is go bé dubhairt "Antichrist" na Coise Caoile
    Marach gur thuill tú é ní bheadh sé agat
    Bheirim mo bheannacht do mo Mháithrín
    Is mo Chúig Céad Slán leí go Conamara
    Mar is ann a bhuailfinn an boicín báire
    Is mé ag Ceann an Cábáin ag ól mo gloine
