    (III)
    I'll dye my petticoats, I'll dye them red
    And round the world I'll beg my bread
    Until my parents shall wish me dead
    Is go dtéidh mo mhúirnín slán.

    (IV)
    I wish I wish I wish in vain
    I wish I had my heart again
    And vainly think I'd not complain
    Is go dtéidh mo mhúirnín slán.

    (V)
    But now my love has gone to France
    To try his forturne to advance
    If he e'er come back 'tis but a chance
    Is go dtéidh mo mhúirnín slán.

    Curfá
    Siubhail siubail siubhail a rúin
    Siubhail go socair agus siubhail go ciuin
    Siubhail go dtí an doras agus éaluig liom
    Is go dtéidh mo mhúirnín slán.
