  1. 'Sí Brígdín deas Ní Máille
    An cailín múinte manla
    Níl bean ar bith san áit seo
    Níos ailne ná í
    Dá bfaghainnse féin mo rogha
    De béithibh breághtha an domhain
    Sí Bríghid bheith i mbun na n-abhann
    Le Páidín Dubh ó Néid

    (II)
    Is mó cailín speíreamhail
    A imtheóchadh liom go h-éasga
    Fé shról is fé shíodaibh gléasta
    Gur seóide i ngach dlaoi
    Ac b'fhearr liom Bríghid mar chéile
    Ná inghean Rígh na Gréige
    'S ná Hélen tharraing léirsgrios
    A's togadh ar an Traoi.
