    “Núair a dheirighimse amach ar an rínn ¶ Is ar an dtaobh thall do rínn a bhíonn mo ghrádh”

    Agus fairsinge breágh lé na dtaoibh.
    Nó lóng don toilig a bfeárr
    Do bhearfad thar bádh mé
    Is gur gairid go reacfainn an Spáin
    Ag amarch ar rábaire an grínn
    Do phreabas do léimeas trím suan
    Ni h- aon ionghnad mór liom é rádh
    Is ar ghábail dom ar Connacht cuan
    Bi an gasradh suairc rómham ar ceann cláir
    Do phreabas do léimeas im shuíde
    Is níor d'fanas lém bhríste ach é am lámh
    Is go Corcaig níor stadas don sgríb
    Is nách ormsa a bhí aoileach an bháis
    Féuchaint an mbéarfainn ar an luing
    Go raibh mo óig fhear breágh innte sé Seán
    Do chloistí ceól airm ina chlaidheamh
    An lá úd bhí an bruidhean ins an Spáin.
