    Ar maidin lae le Pádraig
    I lár mo leabthan luighe dhom,
    Tháinig chúghain mo mháthair go
    cráidte is í ag sior ghoil
    Éirig suas a Pádruig
    No is craidhte beid do chroidhe agat
    Is le bús do dhritheara áluinn
    D'fághas an Cnoch Buidhe duit.

    Fanaig ann ná h-imthig uaim
    Go h-innsfhead bríg do scéil duit,
    Dá caoinfhinn ó na mhairbhn'
    Bí an "scataire" trasctha."

    Go deimhin ní bean a mairim me
    Nár innseas ríamh aon eithig,
    Is ar crios an leadan
    Gur imthigh ann na piléirig.
    IIII
    D'fhanas ar an aiche sin
    Go dtainig breaca an lae orm.
    Fuaireas feín "an scataire"
    Is é caitthe ar an gcaipín fear-glais.
    Ní raibh aoinne beo na bheathaidh
    Dá gearaid no dá ghleásadh
    Ach na saighdíuirí ó Shasana
    Is na "bagnettí" le thaobh leó
