    Nuair is cruaidh ar an g-cailligh caithfidh sí ag rith

    Nodlaig indiú agus Bealtaine im-bárach

    Na dean púntas(?) a goilleas ort féin

    Rud in do mhála ag dul síos dón ghreím no béidh se fhollamh

    Ceannsacht do chapall agus bata do'n bheithidhigh

    Castar na daoine ar a chéile ach ní castar na cnuic

    Is mairg do bhadhfaidhe thart na hanaithe mar geallann an ghrian indiaidh na fearthainne

    Ní fiú sgéal gan ughdar

    Dig deep while the slugards sleep and then you will have corn to sell and to keep
