Ar a ghabhil 'n a 'chuain damh 's m bh go huaibhreach
Tinn lag buartha I'm intinn,
Bhi me feachaint uaim ar an speir aduaidh
's al uaim 'na trealtai.
Ach faraoir gar gar 's m an ceann gan chill
Nor ghlac m comhairle mo mhithrin fin,
's gur dhirt s liom frd chomr ghrinn
Go beal-ath-hamhnais 's n triall ann.
Ach ba mhn a thug m gr do mo chailn bn
An l bre I gcl an gharra,
's do bhiln blth mar chr na tr
's do ghruann chomh dearg leis na caorthainn.
Chuir m lmh ar an chuan, 's bh mo chro ln gruaim
Ag ceilir caoin na n-anlaith,
's nach trua gan mise ag al leat
Faoi rpa 's seolta seidte.
Or, a chuid 's a rn d ngluaisfe ar sil
Go tr na long as éirinn,
Nl tuirse cro n tinneas cinn
Nach leighisf ann gan amhras.
N ba t mo rogha innui is inn
Agus coinnivh agat fin n bhs m,
N gan ghrsta d n mhairfitdh m
Ar an tsrid seo I mbal-ath-hamhnais.
