Chan fhuil gnoithe agam 'na mhuilinn,
Is chá raibh mé ariamh ar áithe;
Chan fhachthas ag gabhail 'un coilleadh mé,
A bhaint ádhbhar toighe de admad;
Bainimse mo seal as teach ar bith,
A bhfuigidh mé deánta;
An teach a mbíonn ann anocht,
Ní bhínn ann san oidhche márach.

Is deas a d'imreochainn cardaí;

Da mbínn mo suidhe go h-árd leis.

Agus d'íosfainn é le preataí;
Ach i dtaca le n-a mbaint anois
na h-iarraigidh orm a dheánamh.
