    “An gamhain geal bán”

    (continued from previous page)
    Is dóigh leo go n-ólaim i dtuillim
    I gcuireacht an ghamhain ghil bhain
    Is nach aoibhinn íad réichí na cruinne
    Nuair d'imirt siad chuigh that lâimh
    IV
    Is d'imiréochainn ón gcuigh ar gach cluiche
    Is an cuireat ar chúl mo láimh
    Is dá n-iompóchadh aon [nídh] acha im'choinnibh
    A chuirfeadh mé ar 'muigh ar no ghrádh
    Do raghaim is do snámhfainn an tSionnain
    Is ní h-íarrfain le luing na bád
    Is ní fhilleng go bráthach ar aon duine
    Mar a bhfilling ar cholúr cois trágha.
    VI
    Nach ró-bhréag íad innseacht an bhfilling
    Mar a bhaintear an feár roimh Shamhain
    Mar a fásann an blátha ar gach bullet
    Is mar a d'airtear gach bliain an Gamhan
    Tá ceol binn ar bhróntaib ag sileadh
    Is binneas bréagh éan ar crann
    Cíor breach ar créibh ag sileadh
    Is iomarca uisce san abhainn.
