  1. Mo thúirne dhubh 's mo thúirne dhubh 's mo thúirne dhubh a bhí sásta,
    Sé mo thúirne dhubh, a (thugadú) chugat thú, a shníomhfadh an dosaen snaithe dhonn.
    Chuir mé sgéal chuig mo stór go ndéanfainn dí péire bróga árda,
    Agus sí sgéal ar ais chugam go mbhrisfead siad a cnámha.
    Mo thúirne dhubh 's mo thúirne dhubh 's mo thúirne dhubh a bhí sásta,
    Sé mo thúirne dhubh, a chugat thú, a sníomhfadh dosaen snaithe dhom.
    Chuir mé sgéala chuig mo stór go ndéanfainn dí teach sláta.
    Chuir sí sgéala ar ais chugam gur bothán fód a bhfearr léi.
    Mo thúirne dhubh 's mo thúirne dhubh 's mo thúirne dhubh a bhí sásta,
    Sé mo thúirne dhubh, a chugat thú, a sníomhfadh dosaen snaithe dhom.
