    'Gus cead rinnce ar fud na gleannta,
    Ag piocadh plannséoga le stór mo chleibh.

    Ag eirig amach inde dhon,
    Bí méin mhaith ann agus maidin bhréagh,
    Cé bhfeicinn acht an speir bhéan
    Ag éalógad ins an ród i bfad uaim
    Bhí dhá cí cruinne glégeal,
    'Leimrigh mar Bhead eala ar chuan
    Is dtug me searc mo chléibh dí
    Mar féidir liom a sgarad uaithe.

    éist tusa a bhuachaill le do chluaingheacht
    Níl maith duit ann nach iomda cailín stuám
    Ag iomchur ualach as gá gol go trom,
    Bfearr liom baint na luachra
    A's ghá tuairgint go lá mo bháis
    Ná do leambh a bheith ar mo ghualann
