    “Cearc agus caoileach ag dimigh le céile”

    Share Share Post
    Cearc agus coileach ag dimigh le céile.
    Do shiubhaladar Éire gur briseadh i gcraoidh
    I Glean dubha tiltháin ta siad ar fearach.
    Ag ithe múineóige sléibhe is a gcodladh sa fhraoch.
    "Há hó" arsan cearc mé dhul ar bearadh.
    Nach claoithe nach tuireach le naithris mo scéal.
    M'fhear is mo clann céile mo leapa.
    Ag imteacht sa bealaigh is nach bpillidh go héig.
    Transcribed by a member of our volunteer transcription project.
