  1. (continued from previous page)
    Is fada liom féin go ndeineann oidhche do'n lá,
    Is fada liom fé go dtéigheann an t-uisce do'n tráig,
    Is fada liom féin go nglaodhann na coillig go h-árd
    Is b'feárr liom ná an saoghal go mbeinn féin i bhfochair mo ghrádh.
    Mo chreach is mo dhíth gan míle faid ins an lá,
    Aiteann is fraoch sa tslighe go mbeimís ag gabháil;
    Mise sa díg is na mílte tor ar mo scáth
    Is grádh geal mo chroidhe a bheith sínte idir mo dhá láimh.
