    Mo Chró beag ag Bun C[h]noc a' Tighe
    I
    Is iomdha áit áluinn in Éirinn
    Ag filidh 's lucht foghluim faoi cháil
    Acht measaim gur gleanntaí Thír Chonaill
    An áit ann is deise le fághail
    Cha dtabharfainn ar choróin Rí Eamonn
    A Phalais 'gus a stór maoineach buidhe
    Mo chomhnuidhe beag féin i dTir Conaill
    Mo chró beag ag bun Chnoc a' Tighe
    II
    Tá'n Mhucaise mhór ar taobh shiar de
    Faoi nealtaí leath-bhealaigh go bun,
    Tá Caisleán Mhic Suibhne taobh thoir de
    Ar bhruach glas cuan Caorach na dtonn,
    Tá'n cuilinn 's caorthann 's fuinnseóg
    's aiteannach glas na mbláth mbuidhe
    'n aghaidh doininn dubh Gheimhridh mar ghárda
    In mo chró beag ag bun Chnoc a' Tighe
    III
    Tá'n bheachóg go meidhreach ag drandán
    ag tógail na mileach ó'n bhláth
    Tá'n londubh 's na duilleogaí glasa
    Gabhail cheoil le na chéile le grádh,
    Tá'n smolach ag seinm le subhailce
    Ar an c[h]raobh glas is aoirde na suidhe
    Agus mise le lúthghair ag éisteacht
    In mo chró beag ag bun Chnoc a' Tighe
