    Buachaillín deas óg mé a thug mórán ghean
    do mhnaoi
    bímh do síorraidhe ag ól is ag ceoltóireacht¬¬¬¬¬
    is ag gabhail fhuinn
    Dá mbeadh punt in mo phócaí is an chíos a
    Bheith le níoc,
    Ní fhághfainn teach an ósta nó go n-ólfainn
    Chuile pighinn

    Is nach dona an fear le pósadh mé is
    Gan bó agam ná laogh
