  2. "Mo Raicín Aluinn"
    O sin é siar an bothar é, is mó ráca na póca thíos
    Sin é aniar arís é gan náire ná sgáth faoi
    Ach tiocfaidh sé annseo amáireach is glachfhaidh pearlaí faoi,
    Socruigh cathaoir árd dó go hárd i mbárr an tighe.
    II
    O tá an ghruaig seo ag imtheacht na duala dhom is dá fuadach leis an ngaoith
    Gheall mo stóirí ráca dom a cosain giní buidhe,
    O bfearr liom mo raicín féin
    O nár cosain sé acht dhá phingin.
    III "Nóra deas Ní Laoi."
    Bhí mé lá breágh fóghmhair ag dul an roid seo siar,
    Casadh cailín deas óg dom, is í ag bleaghan na mbó cois claidhe,
    O sé mo léan gan tú, is tú pósta liomi
    Is tú Nóra deas Ní Laighe.
