    'Dir Bhannadain agus Laoí seadh d'fágas m'um mhaoidhean,
    in gaorthaíbh na laoí go fonnla,
    Mar a mbeadh gárlainn go bínn ar ár dulle is crainn,
    le ráidhteach agus bínn go labharfhaidh,
    Bíonn bán fuic i tígheacht ar ár cnuc na gcroidhe,
    Na táintig acu á gclaoí le cabhair cúghainn,
    Is dá áilneacht é mar shlíghe ní tháirseóchadh le'm chroidhe,
    Gan cailín na gruaige donne.

    im Áintíní gan treó seadh d'fágas uma stór,
    Is a Máitharín á gleó gan dabht leí,
    De'm páirt a thabhairt ar neoín dá nídh dhom shórd,
    Is na cáirne buidhe óir a ghabhair léi,
    Sí an máb mhilis óg do thug bláth ar mo sceól,
    Agus gur páiste atá óg ó ghabhat mé,
    Nách breágh nídh dhom shórd bheith ar aitsíol ar bórd,
    le cailín na gruaighe donne.
