    I
    Is crógach mar sheólann mo bháidín,
    Agus is dian dheas mar snámhann sí ar a faoghar,
    Agus í ag cóireamh go mómhrach cionn tsáirste,
    Tráthnónaín agus í ghá bfáigeant na diaid.

    Do dheód í cheall cáil d'fághail ná glaódhach
    Agus gur bé an ceól dair do seóladh thar sáille,
    Do dhein Jobe buidhe mar bé máighistir na saor.

    Agus a síoma go luath ar an dtuínn,
    Ní raibh oille ar aon taobh di na bluire,
    Ach mar bheadh foileán go dlúth ar an dtoinn.
