    Chuaidh biadh do triuir d'fhearaibh
    A bhí ar bhrághaid Locha Léin
    D'ith an biadh an triúir
    Agus tháinig sé féin.

    (Nead a bhí ag fiolar cois taobh Locha Léin agus trí gearrcaigh istigh ann. Rug an fiolar cat chúcha le n-ithe. D'ith an cat na gearrcaigh)
    Tá fhios ag dáil
    Gur bhfacas an meinnseach a 'gearán
    Ag glanadh amach an Locha
    Ag adharcáil brosna le na hadharcaibh.
