    Nígheachán an t-Sathairn bíonn sé geal Dia Domhnaigh
    Is deacar ceann críonna a chur ar ghuailnibh óga
    Mair a chapaill i gheobhair féar
    Is olc an cearc ná sgríobann dí féin
    Mol an óige agus tiocfaidh sí
    Is mó cur chuireann lá Márta de
    Ní thagann ciall roimh aois
    Pós bean á'n iarthar i pósfair an iarthar ar fad
    Is mó croiceann cuireann an óige dí
    Nuair a chruadhann an t-slat is deacar a sníomh 'na gad
    An bhó is aoirde céim is í is lugha bleaghan
    Caora mhór an t-uan i bhfad
    Nuair a luigheann gé luighidh go léir

    Tiochfaidh an lá fós go mbéadh gnó ag an mnbuin dá h-iorball

    Ní fiú morán beagán d'aon rud, ach is fiú morán beagán céile

    Ar lorg a' madra is gan fios a DÁTA ? dhócha aige

    I ndheireadh a gcoda is eadh troidid na coileáin
