    Ní théígheann stoirm thar Domhnach, ná rabhta thar Céadaoin
    Ní thagann an dá thráig leis an ngobadán
    Is fuiriste croiceann do chur ar laogh óg
    Is leór do mheóir a dhícheall
    Ní féidir ceann críodhana do chur ar cholainn óg
    Is leór nod do'n eólach
    Má's maith leat bheith buan, caith fuar agus teith
    Is minic a dhein braimín giobalach capall maith

    Ní throime do'n loch an lacha,
    Ní troime do'n each a shrian,
    Ní throime do'n chaora a h-ollan (?)
    Is ní troime do collann cian

    Is feárr súil le glas ná súil le h-uaig
    Is minic a thug béal na h-uagha rud do bhéal na truagha
