    Tarraing mé istheach go theach ósta
    Is d'fiafruigh an ógh-bean dhiómh
    Caidh ó rinne thú an pósadh
    Nóí an airigeann thú an óife dha claoidhe

    Is gearr ó rinne me pósad
    Is airighimh go mhór é dul thríomh.
    Sé an té nach nDheara go fóill é.
    'S aighe tá spóitrt an t-sadghal.

    Capitín inise bhí in Éirinn
    A caitheas mo tearma ar luing
    Bainfinn-sé sghíl as na spéarthaibh
    'Gus comarfinn na néaltaí liom

    Geobhfainn bhean ógh ins an saoghal sao [?]
    A sínfead a taob geal lioín
    As rachainn anonn go Jamaicha
    A' saotrhú luad tae agus rúmh.
