    Ar Choinnleach glas an fhóghmhair.
    A stóirín 'seadh dhearc mé thú.
    Ba deas í do sheasamh i mbróigín.
    Is ba ró-deas í do leagan súl.
    Do ghruadh ba deirgre má'n rós.
    Is do chúilín a bhí fighte dlúth.
    Is é mo lean fearr gan mé is tú
    pósta.
    No ar bhord na luinge ag dul anonn.

    Is m chroidhe istigh chomh dubh le gual
    A Mháire ba dheise gáire.

    Is gan bádh againn le dul amach.

    Faoi a ndearnais de mhagadh fúm
