    ARÁ MÓR

    Tá brón indiu ins na Rosaibh,
    'S gach ceanntar ar tír mhór,
    Fa na fir 's mna a cailleadh,
    As oilean Ará Mór,
    Faraor, is bocht an sgeál é,
    'S sé Dia leag go trom,
    A lámh ortha an oidhche sin,
    Agus iad bharr na dtonn.

    (II)
    Béidh cuimhne ins na Rosaibh,
    Ar an t-Samhain seo go deo,
    Nó ní dhéanfar do seo dearmad,
    Fhad agus bhéas muid beo,
    An caill a tháinig ortha,
    Chor a bheith istoigh i gcois na tragha
    Agus iad ag teacht na bhaile,
    Le luthghair agus grádh.

    (III)
    Cosamhail go rabh sé garbh fealltach,
    Le bád a thabhairt anonn,
    Ó phort Ailt an Chorrain,
    Treasna ar bharr na dtonn,
    Acht níor smaointigh siad ariamh,
    Istoigh i ndoimhin a gcroidhte,
    Gur ar thoin na fairrge móire,
    A bheadh a leabaidh luighe.
