    Raibh luisne na leacain mar na rósa
    Is ní leigfeadh an t-óig-fhear do claoidheamh

    A "Mollie" ná bíodh doilgheas dílis nó brón ort
    'D taobh mise bheith id fuadach thar tuinn
    Ní dtaithigheann a bheithidhigh ar cuaird mé
    Ach scafaire de bhuacall mear groidhe
    Thug grád chroidhe dob geal phíob in uaigneas
    Cé go bhfuil fáth orm túbghuadach thar tuinn
    Is marcuigheacht ar mo stoil groidhe go fuair sí
    Ar fad síos go Cuan Baile Cuinn.

    Do chuadar ar thuairis na beithe
    Do leanadar mise ar mo bonn
    Is mo thuairisc go fuaireadar in gach aon áit
    Gur thángadar taobh liom mar a rabhas
    Do phreabuigheas is geitigheas is léimeas
    Is chuadhas ar mo capall mear deas
    Is do maireann do capall dá gaolta
    Ní bhéarfaidís ar Séamus 'ns Drom.

    Súibhligheasa cúig Cúigí na hÉireann
    Is as san go dtí oileán no n-éisc
    Is as san go dtí Sasana an Béarla
    Is in gach dá b'fhéidir a dhuibhal
    Go minic i gcogadh na bpiléir mé
    Is stripálta de'm léine is de'm thrúis
