    Lá le Pádraig is mé im shuidhe 'tigh 'n tabairne.
    Gasra sár fhear lém thaoibh ag ól.
    Bhí an brídeac mhánla na gcuaca mbán ann.
    A cnis mar bláth agus a gruadh mar ró.
    Bhí dís de sár fhear na shuidhe 'r ceann cláir ann.
    Scarcas grádh acu don cuileann óg.
    Bhí fear súaiste is rainn ann is maighistir scoláirí.
    Do scríobhann alán agus do léigheann go leór.

    Do labhair gach n-aon acu lé na céile
    Á moladh feinig lé beul na bpóg.
    Feucaint a mbféidir í mealladh in aon chor
    Don cómhrad mhaordhaidh lé teacht na tréo.
    Do labhair an spéir an té is ailne snódh
    Ach an té scríobhfadh léighfhead cun críce deunamh
