    Phósfainn lanamhain dá mbéadh siad sásta
    Gheobhfainn greim gach lámh leis an cheangal cruaidh
    3.
    Níl a'n chailín óg deas dá siubhalfadh ród liom
    Nár dheas ár lóisdín teacht na hoidhche
    Bhéinn a teannadh le mó chroidhe 's a fásgadh
    'S ar mo glúin ma bhfada an oidhche
    Dá mbéinn mó bhádóir nach dheas a shnámhfainn
    A ceann 'a a cearn dá mbíonn grádh mo chroidhe
    Bhéinn ag imtheacht leis na tonna bána
    'S ag éirighe anáirde leis na bruigh bhuide
