  1. Cill Orglan gan greann,
    Na teighir gan do dhínnear ann,
    Baile beag briste lamh le h-uisce,
    Agus mna gan tuisgint ann.

    Bhíos-sa lá dealbh ag taisdeal an bhótair,
    Gan cuileachta im threó ná airgead puinn,
    Glaodhas go tig tabhairne agus cheapas gur dhóigh go fhliuchfadh mo scórnach le siolla de'n phíop,
    Bhi lán a mhála, lán a chnagaire,

    Phreab sí ar an ndóigh san agus d'fháisg sí an glas órm,
    Agus lámhach sí an hata go tapaidh gan mhoill.
