    t-iomlán ann:-

    CAOINEADH:-
    Mo chara ar mo lár
    Searrach na n-uaisle mbreágh
    Go mbíodh a watchanna 'á chur i gclár
    Agus a gcapall aca 'á ngábháil
    Agus píóbaire 'na lár
    A' gabháíl isteach 'un a' t-sráíd.

    AN CAOINEADH
    A chara chroidhe 's a uain
    A ghaol na ndraoithe dúbha
    'Sa trí caisléain ar a' mbruach, -
    'Sa chaisleán dubh úd thuas
    Ní thabharfadh a' saoghal uaidh
    Chun gur ceangalais
    le h-inghean an cheannaidhe chruaidh
    Ná tabharfadh aon nídh uaidh
    Gan dhá phingin is a luach
    Do dhíolfadh a shéar sin fuar
    'Sa mangalam ruadh
    Amach a' béal a' chuain
