    Lá an tSléibhe
    I
    An té a chuirfeadh a dhochas ar Righ na Glóire
    Freagrochtar é in am.
    A chúl a thabhairt do mhionnas móra agus cuid
    A [?] chomharsan tnúth ná sainnt
    Aithrighe rí-mhait na chroidhe istigh adhéanamh
    Gan feall a dhéanamh ar urnuighthe luath nó mall
    Aimsear na nDeoraidhe a chur igcoir
    'S b'aoibhinn dó ar sliabh Sidheán
    II
    Tuitfidh an speir anuas ar sléibhtib
    Lasfaidh an mhuir agus beidh cnuic ar dogadh
    Agus gach anam [?] glegeal dó bhfuil a bhfad ó céile
    Beidh siad fré céle ar Chnoc na Sluagh
    'S mo léan céard a dhéanfaidh an t-anam caillte
    S é comh dubh le sméar ar Sliabh na mban
    Beidh an ceann ar aon taoibh na cosa fre cal [?]
    An croidhe gan smid agus é bodhar dall
    III
    Annsin a bhfeicfear an sean Diabhal treighte craidhte
    Ag iarraidh éagceart agus olc do snuadhadh
    A Dhia ghlegeal féac ar do thaobh dheas -
    'S Ná chuir mé imeasg an droch shluaigh
    An pheist a dhéarfaidh sé is measa ar aon chor
    Nuair a shíl tú mise fágáil fút anuas
