    “I got the following little song from Mr Hubert Forde, farmer, of Dernageer, Ballinaghera, Co. Leitrim.”

    (continued from previous page)
    Agus sgéal eile taobh thíos den gheata,
    Is oró rath mo chroidhe.

    Nuair d'éirigh mé fhéin lá thar n-a bhárach,
    Fothún ann do buidhe
    Cé tháinig chugam ach Molly gan náire,
    Is oró rath mo croidhe.

    Chrom sí an ceann agus rinne sí gáire,
    Fothún ann do buidhe
    Ná crom do cheann, ní tú dhein an t-ádhbhar
    Is oró rath mo chroidhe
    Ach mise mé fhéin bhí dalba dána,
    Fothún ann do buidhe.
