    Amhrán - 'S óra lon dubh buidhe
    I. Bhí mé lá breagh a'gabhail an bothar,
    's óra londubh buidhe.
    Casadh an gruagach uasal óg díom,
    'S óra ghrádh mo chroidhe.
    II. D'fiafruigh sé díom-sa an ingean damh an óg-mhnaoí,
    's óra londubh buidhe.
    D'freagair mé féin gur bí mo bhean phósta í,
    'S óra ghrádh mo chroidhe.
    III. An dtabhairfea iasacht uair nó lá dí
    's óra londubh buidhe.
    Dheanfaidh mé sin acht dheanfaidh mé an chóir leat
    'S óra ghrádh mo chroidhe.
    IV. Gabh thusa an tísleacht, a's rachaidh mise an bothar,
    's óra londubh buidhe.
    A's cibé leanfaidh sí bíodh sí go deó aige,
    'S óra ghrádh mo chroidhe.
    V. Chuaidh seisean an t-ísleacht a's chuaidh mise an bothar,
    's óra londubh buidhe.
    Agus lean sí an gruagach, is aige bhí an óige,
    'S óra ghrádh mo chroidhe.
