    Geibheann árus ó mo muinntir féin
    Ba agus caoirigh bána i bpáirc,
    Le na gcur chun féir
    Codladh fada Samhraidh,
    A's greann a bheith gá dhéanam léi,
    'Gus cead rinnte ar fud na gleannta,
    Ag piocádh plannséoga le stór mo chleibh.

    Ag eirig amach indé dhom,
    Bí méin mhaith ann agus maidin bréagh
    Cé bfeicinn acht an spéar bhéan,
    Ag ealóghadh ins an ród i bfad uaim
    Bhí dhá cí cruinne glégeal,
    'Leimhrig mar bheadh eala ar chuan,
    Is dtug me searc mo chleibh dí.
    Mar ní féidir liom a sgaradh uaite.
