    Se chuid de leagan ghearr ar Róis Bheag Dhubh
    A Róis, dar leat mise nach ar b'aoibhinn duid
    Comh deas a's chealgóchainn do leanbhan dá mbeidheadh sé a' gol
    Is leat a shiublóchainn an oidhche bíodh sí fuar nó fliuch
    Ag ól fíon a's ag imirt díslidh le mo Róis Bheag Dhubh.
    A Róis a chuil-dualaigh a bhidheanns ag fás go tiúgh
    Ar' gur deirge do dhá ghrauidh 'na bláth na rúgh.
    Tualaisc a chuala mé ort indé 's indiú
    Gur a fuaraghadh a'n uile uair atá mo Róis Bheag Dhubh.
    A Róis, na bíodh cás ort fá'n nar éirigh dhuid
    Chuaidh brathair duid thar sáile tá a' triall aníar
    Tiocfaidh do phardún ó'n Phapa agus ó'n Róimh airlig
    'S ca spáráilim fíon Spainneach ar mo Róis Bheag Dhubh.
    A Rúm, na bíodh ort buaidhreadh, nó trioblaid ann do chionn
    Glac an saoghal le pléisiúr, agus gheobhaidh tú seaghair ann
    Dá mbéidheadh ór agam ann i na h-éapaí is duid a bhéarfainn eile roinn
    Dá n-athrughfá do bhéasa 's a rádh go dtiocfa liom
