    Duine gan stór a ghlór ní meastar í gcéin,
    Duine gan stor ar chóiste ní bagarthar é.
    Duine gan stór níl gnó aige ag imirt na ag glaodhach
    Duine dá short bíonn sé na sheód ag aindheise an tsaoighail.
    Táimse cortha is ní moltar mo shaothar,
    Agus taréis mo dhíchill ní bhítear baodhach díom.
    Is mor leó a ndithim & is beag leó a ndéanaim.
    Agus ní leigtear a chodlad go breach an lae mé.
    Gorta dúbha mar a suíghtear síos me
    Í bportach móna atá dhá fhódh deagh ar aoirde.
    An ghaoth adtuaidh bíonn sí cruaidh is cuireann sí fuacht ar dhaoine
    An ghaoth aniar bíonn sí fial is cuireann sí iasc i liontaibh.
    An ghaoth andheas bíonn sí tais is cuireann sí rath ar shíoltaibh.
    An ghaot anoir bíonn sí tirm is cuireann sí sioch istoidhche.
    Sláinte chúgat agus cabhair
    Dealbh go dteo ná rabhair
    Go bhfásad gruaidh ar cheann
    Cómh fada le meigeall an ghabhair.
    Táim in áraírse, árairse,
    Táim in áraírse i dteach óil.
    Táim in áraírse, árairse.
    Agus is baoghalach ná díolfhad go deó.
