    Ceó Draoidheachta
    Ceó draoidheachta sheól oidhche chun fáin me,
    Cois ghrinn-ghlais na Blárnan ó thuaidh;
    A's ar sluidhe dom cois crainn go raibh bláth air

    A shíolraigh ó Ádam anuas.
    An fíor gur tú Íne ná Áine
    Ná an tsidhe bhean ó'n Mám Chnoc adtuaidh;
    Nó an fhaoilean gur thug Naoise thar sáile,
    Go raibh na ríghthe ar árdaidh go buan.
    Ní fíor gur mé Íne ná Áine
    Ná an tsidhe bhean ón Mám Chnoc adthuaidh,
    Ní an fhaoilean a thug Naoise thar sáile
    Go raibh na ríghthe ar árdaibh go buan.
    Is a shéimhfhir bhréag mhardha na mín-tais,
    Téanam ort síos go tig Róin,
    Mar a bhfuil chéibh bruinneall maordha fé dhraoidheacht ann,
    Fé Ré bhrataibh síoda agus sróil.
    Beidh pléasúr gach laé i gainn le hinnsint,
