  1. Nuair a Chuirimse An Garraí

    Nuair cuirmse an garaidh
    (Is olc eirigeann se liom)
    Ni éirigheann si liom
    (Ni thughim sé an grán sin)
    Tog lustradh bréagh laidir
    (Deanfadh arán no leann)
    agus blath buidhe os a cionn
    Níl coirce nó eorna
    ná go ndeanfainn de leann
    go bé sior ól na gcúrtai
    D'fág an mála ar mo dhruim
    Tá dream aca shanntuigheas
    mann airigd agus óir
    Tá dream eile sanntuigheas
    maoin caiple agus buaibh
    Nach bhfearr t-inntleacht
    cuid a rann de cuid eile de ól
    ná an t-iomlan a beith caillte
    lá a racfaimid faoi fhod
    Da mbéidheadh cláirseach ann mo parlús
    is i deanadh ceoil
    agus ceardcha anns ach cearn damh
    agus í bhéith ag buaileadh óir
