    An bhó bheag
    Da cheannuigheas bó bheag ar aonach Beanntraighe
    Níor tugas uirthi ach deich nginí buidhe
    Tugas abhaile i timcheall a trí
    Is air mo mnaoí a bhí an t-athas.

    Do chuireas mo bhánaí isteach annsan cró
    Is do thugas de punann is prataí nó dhó
    Do thóg mo bhean stól is an buicéad ba mhó
    Is do chrú sin an bhó ar a sásta.

    Níor leag banaí uirthi go bhfeacha sí Siobhán
    Cun go raibh an buicéidín geall leis bheith lán
    Annsain d'fheach siar is do chuin an stáin
    Naomi míle taob thíar do Chill-Áirne
    IV
    Stalamh an leamhnach anáirde sa spéir
    Do chuireas Siobhán bocht ar eitil nós gé
    Ní fuaireas a tuairisc go tráthnóna indé
    Nuair a tháinig chugham srong-scéal ón gclóir.

    D'ealaig mo bhánaí is mar eirig leí a rádh
    Do thuiteas i bhfanntais is táim-se ann fós
    Nár a bhfada go ndeintear dá chrú fástó
    Is go bhfeicir Siobhán bhocht i n-áirde.
