- (continued from previous page)muid. Gamhna is buaibh, caoirigh is gabhair,
'Is na h-uain go bhfuigh muid féar daobhtha,
Nach ró-dheas an pháirc i dtoradh is ingráin.
Is na bradain as an áth ag h-éimnigh.III An Bhean
Dá mbéadh de bhradain is d'iasg ó Ghaoth Bearr aniar
Is iad ag gabhail thart faoin gharraidh,
Ní thógaim sé mó shuil le tuirse is le cumhaidh. Ó tháinig mé in do chlúad ghránna
Tá galar ar na gabhair, 'as crupan ar na buaibh,
'Is na caoirigh ag gabhail le h-altaibh,
'Is dá ma liomsa Éire anuas ó Loch Éirne
Gur in Gleann Gheis a bhfearr liom bhéith mo chomhuidhe.IV An Fear
Gnidheann achan rud sa Ghleann a bhrón gan roinn
Mar bhéadh gach caill ariamh air;
Bhí an teach mór 'a strochadh le gaoith mhóir,
'Is striochadh coirce is cruacha féir ann;
Bhí cruic le h-ardughadh ag gach boithidheach ann
Is caidé sin fa na bhuaidhreamh
