  1. Tá an diabhal ró-gnóthach is is dócha gur fíor é,
    Mar do stúir sé mé chun bóthair gan cómhnaidhe le'm muinntir,
    B'atuirseach cráidhteach, mo cás dealbh deórach,
    Mar a sgarus le'm máthair geal grádhmar na glóire.
    Mar isé a chonnaic é go cráidhte cinn deórach
    Mar a mbeadh rígh amadáin ag an ngárda dá ndhaoradh
    Iompuig o'n scamaill cruaidh daingean na n-diabhal,
    Agus do mairfidh an t-anam comhfada le Dia.
    Níl ins an t-saogail seo ach tréimh-se mí-ádhmharach
    Níl cúnntas ag aoinne ann ó indé go dtí amáireach.
