    Maidean Luan
    1.
    Maidin Luan cois Íne thuaidh d’Ane
    Ar m’eirghe amach go dian mhoch
    Is mé ag feuchaint uainn ins na sléibhte fuara
    Is gurbh fada uaim tig Daod bocht
    Do chuireas orm mo bhróga go leisgeamhail brónach
    Is bhí tuille ar an abhainn rómham sgéithte
    Ó ghlór na h-abhann tháinig tinneas im cheann
    Is n’fheadar cá rabhas in aon chor.

    Bhí Willie ar a’ gclaidhe is do ghlaoidh uaidh síos orm
    Is é dubhairt sé ní fhéudfar é chur díot in aon chor
    B’fhearra leat teacht aníos tá an t-asal i gceann a’ tíghe
    Is beurfaidh sé anonn saor thú
    Do ritheas aníos is d’éirig orm mo chroidhe.
    Is is árd an claidhe ná léimfhinn
    Iarraim ar Íosa ar Mhuire is ar Bhrighidhe
    Na leoghfhaidh sibh coidhche ar strae mé.
