    Ar mo gabháilt dom tré Droichead na Súire
    Ar thuairisg mo stuaire cailín
    Do chonnaic mé botháinín in uaigneas
    Is gan braon anuas air ná aníos
    Annsúd a bhí 'Mollie' go h-uasal
    Ar leaba mion-shuaimhneas 'na luighe
    'S le'm glaicigheacht go mbeartuigheas í bfiadhach
    Is go gcóimhreochainn go deo léithe síos.

    Thúrlingheas de'm capall go mhúinte
    Is do thugas mo thaobh deis do'n mnaoi
    D'iarruigheas de'm ciúin cailín maorach
    D'én fáth de bheith ag geur gol na codi
    Más cathú atá id marbhú in thaobh-sa
    Beir misneach agus pleisiúr gan mhoill
    Mar ar Arm na Sacsan ní staonad
    Go gcuirfear na trí mhac sa choill.

    An caladh gan dearmhad do shnámhaigh sé
    Mar scafaire de buachaill mear groidhe
    Ar mhuin staille b'fhearr i gcroidhe fola
    Sa marcach úd be leonta sa tír
    Do thug "annir cuain cáillce" thar teora é
    Cé gur measaim gur bpóg í mar innaoi
