    Na labhair liom fá'n tír seo a fhágail
    A's imeacht thar saile anonn,
    No b'fhearr liom béith beo bocht in Éirinn
    Le mo chailín beag deas doigheamhail donn
    'S cha dtig liom umhaladh Dia Domhnaigh
    As paidir a chuir ó mó chroidhe
    Le hanam mo shinnsear a thóg é
    Mo chró beag ag bun Chnoc a Tighe.

    Tóg suas do cheann alúinn a Éire
    béidh bláth ort 's [rachmas] go foill
    Na pilidh do chlann atá díbeartha
    'S béidh siad ar ball ag gabhail cheoil,
    Fríd ghleanntaí 's bantaibh na tíre
    Le haoibhne 's luthghair a gcroidhe
    Mar tá mé anocht i dTír Chonaill
    In mo chró beag ag Bun Chnoc a' Tighe.
