  1. A Song

    “Do bthiosa la ag obair i ngleann,”

    Do bhios-sa la ag obair i ngleann.
    Is do thuit an oidche orm ann.
    Do seóladh siar me im chuireadh gan iarraidh.
    Go tug Diarmuidh, dar sloinne Cam.
    D'iarras cead suidhte na geom.
    Is seóladh me na gceann.
    Na h-iarrfainn tuighe na leabhaidh na luigh.
    Acht amháin cead suidhte annsúd thall.
    D'fhreagair an ríocach mé
    Is a dubhairt na raibh slighe 'ca dhom,
    Na raibh tuighe 'ca leabaidh na luighfinn
    "Tarraig ort siar no soir."
    Do léimeas sios fé'n dtigh.
    Agus chuireas féin sa rith,
    An macha siar do chuireas-sa dhíom.
    Amhail is da bhfeicinn sprid.
    Athchuingim ar an rí atá thoir,
