    Gur coileán múinte socair mé
    Lá thosuigh sí cur cogaidh orm
    Cailleach as crioch lochlannach
    Is í ag moladh Prasbitearans.

    Bhí mé ag gabhail an bhaile seo
    Is tháinig mé isteach tigh Éamuinn
    Is bhí cailleach cois na teineadh ann
    IS í ag gabhail tríd leabhar Freemasons
    Ní túisce bhíos mo sheasamh ann
    Ná labhair sí liom go haibighthe
    "Are you a Roman Catholic
    Or what's your occupation"?

    Ní bhfuair mé mórán sgoláireacht
    Ná oideachas ar Bheurla
    Acht gur gaibh mé tríd an "Spelling Book"
    Is gur léigh mé beagán Gaedhilge
    Ní raibh mo mhuinntear achmhuinneach
    Is d'fág sin de réir aimsire
    'Gus chun an Aifrinn bhiodh mo tharraingt
    Nuair annamh theighinn in an ált.
