- Máire Óg bean óg í seo a mhair i Leacain[?] a Bhainne i mBárrr Iarach sa bhonan ataobh tuadh don tunnelI
Tá cailín ar an mbaile seo go glaodtair uirthi Máire Óg
Gruaig a cinn go talamh léi agus a croiceann geal go leór
Jacket hoops is hata urithi is í beartuthe go leór
Agus mór-chuid des na cleasanna ag mealladh na bhfear n-óg. II
Agus éist airiú a mháithrín táim chráidhte am [líníocht - croí (séimithe)] roim ré
Dob fhearra [?] an táilliur mara mbeadh tsnáth aige san tsaol
Do [?] stoc' is léine do agus eadach geal den linn
Is dá mbáil leis mise phósadh beadh an foghmhar aige i gcríIII
Now hold your tongue dear Mother In love my [drawing of heart] is broke
Id rather marry the tailor than any man I know
He can make a suit in fashin[?] for clergyman or pope
And Id range thro hills & valleys with the lad that I adore. IV.
Ó do shiubhlagheas Ros Ó Cairbre is as súd ó tuaidh go Dóinn

O thuaidh airís go Daingean agus treasna (Linthe) an tig(?) mhóir
Ó is ná faghainn aon bhean ar an mbaile seo níos blasta ná Máire Óg.
