    Loch Línn
    Maidean aoibhinn áluinn
    Ar maire breas bartardóin
    Gabhart ar ghleann áth
    Agus i barr locha línn.

    Mar a mbíonn na bardan feárna
    Agus na breach ag eiríghe máirde
    Gach iasc i lá breághthach
    Agus é ag gabháilte ar a líon
    Bíonn ómar ann is marble
    Ór buidhe agus pláta
    An túl is an tearna
    Agus ag plumpú ar a taoibhe.

    Bíonn ceól píop is stáinte
    Agus is dhóigh liom féin go mbféarr san
    Ná cnoicín garbh phíop
    Lá is míd do stuaigneach leathú bhárr na stúice
    Feacaint soir ó thuaidh ar ghual na binne guidhe
    Mar a mbíonn an iolún ó'n gcuan agus i brolse
    Ná i seangaig da léagadh i Loc Grínn,
    IV
    Bhí gun in eiríghe máirde
    Agus cearca súid na danta
    Gach nídh lá breághthach do chara bannch i lón
