  1. An Gamhain Geal Bán

    Share Share Post
    Ar mh-eirighe go dian mhoch ar mhaidin
    Is mé ag tarrach ar ioghar an tsléibhe
    Cé chifinn rómham na suidhe cois a’ leasa
    Ach an ainnir do báilne scéimh.
    Bhí a píop agus a gnaoi mar an eala
    Is a malla a bhí cumtha réidh
    Sé mo lean! nár fhéadas í mhealladh
    Seal ó na máthairín féin.

    Cois ciumhais an t-sléibhe atá againne
    Tá an ainnir chiúin mhódhamhail dheas mhná
    Is ní lugha liom go mbuaileadh sé am choinnibh
    Chun go dtuiteann an drúcht ar bhán
    Dá dteanguigheadh sí ar chomhgar na gloinne
    Is gan aoinne bheith ann go lá
    Is aoibhin do phógfainn-se an bhruinneall
    Gurbh ainim di an Gamhain Geal Bhán.
