    Fuair sean duine bás i gClacán na Gaoithe fadó agus do bhí ing[h]ean do a dheanamh caoine as a chionn. Dubhairt sí mar leanas.
    "Mo ghrádh thú agus mo thaisge,
    Bádhtaoi muc id' chuid bainne
    'Dir dhá Cheudaoin Earraigh
    Nuair a bhíodh iarthar Ínse dealbh"
    D'eirigh bean a bhí ag éisteacht lei na suidhe agus d'fhreagar sí í
    "Léan ort a chaillighe,
    Ná cuir bréag ar an mhairbh
    Go mór mhór ar t-athair.
    Níorbh mhuc é ach banbh
    Do sháithigh a cheann sa channa
    Mar ná raibh a' sgolpán daingean.
    Agus a dtuaidh thar Mám,
    A tháinig an bainne,
    Ó thig Sheáin Chríonna Uí Fhlaithimh.["]
