   Sa t-sean aimsir thagadh iascairí ó Dhúngarbhán go Cuirt a’tSearraigh agus do ráinig go raibh fear ar bád acha a bhí an-ghéarcúiseach ‘na chainnt. Thárla go dtáinig a’file Séamus Ó Colamán ar dhruim chapaill ag féachaint ar na báid agus ‘nuair do chonnach a’t-iascaire é do chuir sé cainnt air mar seo: ‘A fhear a’chapaill bháin A n-íosfá deargán A’thón sean-bháid Aníos ó Dhúngarbháin?’ Do leag an Colmanach ‘na thost é d’urchar. Sidé a dubhairt sé: ‘Dá mbeifeá-sa is do shean-bhád A’siúntaibh Ghascharáin, Do thabharfá do dheargán A bheith i gcalmán” (I n-iarthar Chorcaighe atá an siúnta seo agus bíonn an fhairrge riamh ‘na fraoch-thonntaibh ann)
