    Éan gan eiteóg faoi bhéal creige,
    Tháinig éan eile gan gob agus d’ith sé é
    (Sin sneacht a léig an ghrian.)
    Geirrfiadh, geirrfiadh, boisidhea bonn
    Siubhlann sí Éire ‘s ní fhliuchann sí bonn.
    (An ghealach)
    Chuartuigh agus ní bhfuair mé,
    Dá bhfághann é chaitheann uainn é,
    Agus nuair nach bhfuair mé é
    Thug mé liom abhaile é.
    (Sin dealg a bhéadh i gcois duine.)
