    Bhí an púdar dár múcadh is dár bpréacadh
    bhí an luaith dár mbuaileadh san éadan
    is na piléir ba mheasa ná an méid sin.
    Seacht seachtmhaine chaith siege le Gaedhil bhocht
    níor mhian leobhtha a gcomhlucht a thréigean
    nó gur buaileadh buille Cromail ar Fhéinnibh
    Agus a Eachdhruim Uí Cheallaigh cuirim léan ort
    A Eachdhruim agus a Eachdhruim cuirim léan ort
    Mallacht is mallacht mhic Dé ort
    Mallacht na n-aspol is na naomh ort
    ba tú an gráig bhaile ba ghranda bhí i nÉirinn
    Is dona an spíd a mheathuigh na Gaedheala
    mar bheadh caoirigh ar malaigh sléibhe
    nó contracha a' slaiseál a chéile
    ar uilic is ar uilic na Féinne
    A Chu Connachta mo sheacht sgalladh is mo shiubhal @ Eibhe?
    nach truagh Muire mise i ndiaidh an méid sin
    A' smaoineadh ar dhíbirt na Féinní
    Mo lot go deo is mo dhoiligh
    mo stóilín ón róidín? ó chéile
    agus iad go barr easnacha i bhfuil a chéile
