    Sí an cailín meidhreach an cailín aerach,
    Chonnaic sí radharc is bhí deagh eolas,
    Na piceanna is na h-oigheannta dheineadh sí seóladh,
    Is ím a' chéad phraghais a bheadh aice ar noimeat.

    Dá gcasfaí mo ghrádh orm ar sráid nó ar aonach,
    Chuirfin gloine is cárt 'na láimh in éinfheacht,
    Thógfainn a páirt dá bhfeicfinn í á daoradh,
    Is rinncfinn ar chlár leis an gCailín Aerach

    Cómhairle a thabhairfinn díbh-se a cailíní,
    Gan ' bheith amuigh go déidheanach
    I measc na n-óg fhear,
    Ach teacht abhaile go luath um’ thráthnóna
    Mar go bhfaghad sibh ar maidin siubhal an bhóthair.
